OK, we have a pretty serious problem here.As some of you know, it began with kde, where it was discovered that compiling kde with libpng3 led to runtime problems apparently caused by imlib not having been updated to libpng3. So someone updated imlib to libpng3, and now gnome users are having tremendous trouble. There are two issues: (1) how to we quickly restore things to a stable state for the sake of our users, and (2) how do we ever do these upgrades correctly?

That or to *upgrade* everything to libpng3. As far as I'm aware they're source-compat. (I think)The only solution to (1) that I see is to downgrade everything back to libpng.
It's gonna be a buttload of building either way, it seems like if it's got to come to that, we should at least bring old packages using the old one current.
I don't know a solution to (2) at the moment.
I don't either, other than big massive updates all at once. :( ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Scholarships for Techies!
