Re: Bug#147427: gdk-imlib1: compiled on libpng-1.2.1
Hi,
I am closing this bug because it does not pertain to the Debian
imlib packages.

Imlib is part of the GNOME version 1 application binary interface
which is based on libpng2; therefore the Debian imlib packages link
with libpng2. Some technical details about this decision can be found
in the thread starting at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-gtk-gnome/2002/debian-gtk-gnome-200201/msg00007.html
This is the second bug report inside of a week about imlib and libpng,
so I surmise that there is a bogus imlib package floating around. Can
someone find out who made it and LART them, please. Point them at
/usr/share/doc/imlib-base/README.Debian.
If anyone wants to make a package with imlib linked against libpng3,
they need to change its SONAME, and hence package name.
Thanks,
-Steve
