In a nutshell I completely removed all traces of libpng (libraries, includes, and .pc files), downloaded the libpng 1.2.5 sources, built and installed that, patched the Dillo ./configure file, then built and installed Dillo 0.7.2 from source and it worked. Nothing like some occasional house cleaning to clear out version conflicts.
Well, actually, a mere clean upgrade to libpng.1.2.5 should have been enough. Then, the patch against configure should not be necessary. Or vice versa . Just clarifying a bit :-) Cheers, Andreas -- **************************** NEW ADDRESS ****************************** Hamburger Sternwarte Universitaet Hamburg Gojenbergsweg 112 Tel. ++49 40 42891 4016 D-21029 Hamburg, Germany Fax. ++49 40 42891 4198
