#41842: Please update libPNG to current version, 1.6.7 ------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: william@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: update | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: libpng | ------------------------+-------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: new => assigned * owner: macports-tickets@… => ryandesign@… * cc: ryandesign@… (removed) Comment: There were problems updating libpng from 1.2 to 1.4 and from 1.4 to 1.5: changes made in those versions of libpng caused other programs to fail to build, so we waited a long time after those versions were released to update the port, in the hopes that other programs would have been updated by then to be compatible. That doesn't appear to be the case with 1.6. I've been running my main MacPorts installation with 1.6 since it came out and have not encountered any build issues with other ports, so I do intend to update the port without delay. The only difficulty with doing that is the necessity of identifying all ports depending on libpng and increasing their revisions to rebuild them. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/41842#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
