Maybe I can submit "request for improvement" for libxml2? It looks like *.a was simply not included into package, so I hope it is trivial to fix it. > GraphicsMagick is linked versus libpng14 > > $ cygcheck cygGraphicsMagick-3.dll |grep png > E:\cygwin2\bin\cygpng14-14.dll Yes, it is possible to explore the library this way, but I think "GraphicsMagick++-config --libs" should report, which library was used to produce libGraphicsMagick.a. I can't use "-lpng", and I can't any other alternative like "-lpng12" or "-lpng14", because I may end up with missed symbols in libGraphicsMagick.a. > $ cygcheck -l libpng14-devel |grep png\.a > /usr/lib/libpng.a In this case everything looks good :) > one is a missing functionality and there other is not a bug ;-) I agree. -- With best regards, Dmitry -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
