xv and png
dear all, standard `xv' does not have png support although patches seem to exist. `port info xv' lists `libpng' as one of the dependencies and PNG is explicitely mentioned under the supported file formats. therefore I installed it hoping for PNG support, but without success: no display of png images. any ideas? thanks joerg ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

This is normal for pearl. There are a fair number of pearl modules that work this way. s/pearl/perl/; I don't know enough about macports yet to comment on the macports-specific issues at hand. But let me note that Perl 5.8.0 was released in July 2002 and Test::Harness was one of its core modules. Both Perl and Test::Harness have evolved considerably since then. In particular, Test::Harness underwent a major change at version 2.64 -- precisely the version noted in the message above. The current stable release of Perl is 5.10 (released December 2007) and the version of Test::Harness that accompanied Perl 5.10 is basically the same as that in 2.64. ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
