Bug#662379: [Debian-med-packaging] Bug#662379: Bug#662379: insighttoolkit: Please Build-Depends on libpng-dev, change from libpng12-dev

[Luis Ibanez]

Steve,

We could look into updating the ITK dependency on
PNG to use 1.5, once we resume the maintenance
cycle of ITK in a couple of weeks.

I'm not sure if that is too late for the current packaging
that you are working on...

Luis

 Libpng maintainers plan transition of libpng[0].
 Version 1.2 is used for libpng of current debian, but will shifts
 to version 1.5 in this transition.
 Your package still does it depending on libpng12-dev.

 Yes, and insighttoolkit cannot change because PNG 1.5
 breaks the API; see 648126.

 Either libpng 1.5 needs to be made API compatible or a suitable
 modification needs to be made to insighttoolkit upstream.

Any help you can provide is welcome.  I'm kind of hoping that there is
a minor change that either (a) I can back-port to Debian's 4.1.0
package, or (b) you guys can release as 4.1.1.

I don't know libpng at all and I haven't investigated the issue.
Nobuhiro: is there a guide or FAQ for porting code to 1.5?

Cheers,
-Steve
