Re: Emacs and last libpng release

Does this mean that there is some library which, after being rebuilt,
will allow Emacs to be build OB, linking to libpng16, without the need
to install libpng15?


Maybe I have understood.. it seems an issue similar to that I flagged here: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-12/msg00390.html

The build log shows:

  Does Emacs use a png library?                           yes -lpng16

and ldd :

$ ldd /usr/local/emacs/bin/emacs.exe | grep png
        cygpng16-16.dll => /usr/bin/cygpng16-16.dll (0x3f6700000)
        cygpng15-15.dll => /usr/bin/cygpng15-15.dll (0x3f6740000)

So, the "spurious" dependency could came from ImageMagick which still depend on libpng15.

Ciao,
  Angelo.
