Substitute for 'xv' image viewer?

IMHO, there is NO substitute for xv. Why don't you just compile it for 
yourself? Or, failing that, surely someone has produced a ".deb" version.

on Ubuntu?

I like xv because:

* it's easily controllable with command line options
  (especially for setting up a slideshow)
* it shows you the pictures, and *just* the pictures..
* ..but you *can* also pop up a GUI if needed to delete unneeded pics, etc

Any suggestions?
