The libpng API changes with each major release, which is why the DLL name gets "bumped" in each case. libpng14-1.4.x-y provides cygpng14-14.dll, while libpng12-1.2.x-y provided cygpng12.dll. FWIW, the png team has abandoned even/odd numbering to designate stable/development releases. Hence, the 1.5.x series is now the "current" stable release -- our "new" libpng-1.4.x is already obsolete. I'll publish libpng15 before Christmas (by which time, of course, libpng-1.6 will be stable). -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
