libpng-1.0.8-2 is ready for testing at http://cygutils.netpedia.net/testing/libpng-1.0.8-2.tar.gz http://cygutils.netpedia.net/testing/libpng-1.0.8-2-src.tar.gz (not using sourceware for test releases -- it's hard for folks to get them from the private directories since they're not mirrored). Changes from 1.0.8-1: o updates from 1.0.9pre3 (I've tested these, but they only apply to the asm acceleration code -- which isn't included in the binary package. So, I didn't bump the version number) o follows new naming scheme for dlls: /usr/lib/libpng.dll.a (import lib) /usr/lib/libpng.a (static lib) /usr/bin/cygpng2.dll (dll **) o requires zlib-1.1.4-5 (**) png-developers specify that 1.x.y packages have an interface version number of 2. The 2.x.y packages are forthcoming, and will be have a version number of 3. Installation: Download libpng-1.0.8-2.tar.gz and either: put it in an empty directory with setup.exe run setup (install from local directory) or unpack from '/': cd / && tar xvzf libpng-1.0.8-2.tar.gz You MUST also install zlib-1.1.4-5 or better. Comments eagerly solicited, Chuck Wilson P.S. Please reply to this message with comments specific to the libpng package. If you wish to discuss the library naming scheme, please don't respond to this message. I'll post another thread to kick off *that* discussion. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
