Dear Debian-devel, The preparation for the transition are going pretty much good. In the meantime the bugs have been filed and there are already many fixes uploaded. MANY THANKS for all of you. I'm also rebuilding newly uploaded packages to keep libpng.sviech.de somehow up to date.   Of course,

MBF Announcement: Transition libpng12 -> libpng16

Dear debian-devel, we are currently planning to start the transition of libpng. The transition bug can be found here: https://bugs.debian.org/650601. Out of the 463 rebuilt packages 117 FTBFS with the new libpng, however not every failure can be attributed to the library. Logs from the rebuild

Hi Tobias, > I guess I'll drop Norbert a line for now to make him aware  > of the libpng transistion... (CC'ed) Oh, I would be more than happy to have libpng16 in unstable!!! I can rebuild texlive-bin at any time with system-libpng, just need a working copy. But first I need the other libs
