No, like any --with-XXX-library, it takes any of these (see acinclude.m4): dnl * boolean (no, yes or blank): whether to use library or not dnl * file: assumed to be the name of the library dnl * directory: assumed to *contain* the library It seems like there is simply no such directory $HOME/bin/libpng/lib. The error message is misleading, because of a new autoconf behaviour, I will fix it. The fixed error message will be: configure: error: --with-png-library argument must be yes/no, file or directory Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
