I have installed Gwenview on to my Mepis 7 (based on Debian stable) system but
the plugins while selected and installed don't show up in the plugins
section. A quick google reveals a post that suggests I have a crippled
version of Gwenview, the post goes on further to suggest I download the
original gwenview.rc file from the achive section of http://gwenview.sf.net  

Well I looked and I can't find an archive section, can anybody point me in the
right direction please.

Which kde version are you talking about? Kde3 i believe.
Anyway if the plugins are not shown would be for
a) gwenview has not been compiled with kipi support
b) you haven't installed libbkipi and kipi-plugins.

If you mean kde 4.0.x instead, kipi support was not already in probably.

HTH,
Angelo

The source code of Gwenview 1.4.2 can be downloaded here:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gwenview/gwenview-1.4.2.tar.bz2

You need to unpack this archive and copy the gwenviewui.rc (not
gwenview.rc) where your distribution installs it. Since your
distribution is Debian based, I believe it will be in
/usr/share/apps/gwenview/.

Not sure, but 1.4.2 is the one found in testing/experimental:

http://packages.debian.org/source/lenny/gwenview

$ sudo apt-get install -t testing gwenview
