libpng 1.5.9-1
So far all other apps have built against it, but
digikam and gwenview both failed pointing directly to
libpng. If it is libpng, do you want me to file a bug and
elevate to BLOCKER. Everything is going to libpng 1.5
quickly so TDE must be compitible.
Do you recognize those build failure as being libpng
itself or tde?
A quick check of the web shows that others had problems building digikam and gwenview with
libpng 1.5. I haven't looked for patches. If you find any, test them and if
successful, attach them to a bug report.
Currently I don't yet have a system installed with libpng 1.5 and can't test any
1.5 patches. If you confirm the patches work, and I can build with the patches but against
libpng 1.4.9 (that is, the patches do not backfire against older versions), then I'll
push to GIT.
If the patches fail against older versions, then we need to update the wiki so packagers
can add appropriate tests to their build scripts to use the libpng 1.5 patches only when
1.5 is installed. I'll still push to GIT once we have that all done.
