If you don't mind binary-only software you could try XnView:
http://www.xnview.com/

It's free for non-commercial use on all supported platforms,
the Linux and FreeBSD versions are also free for commercial
use.

There is even a NetBSD version though last time I tried it
didn't work for me. But the Linux version ran fine.
