As near as I can tell, it's looking for either libpng12 or libpng14, but I have libpng15. Dillo builds and png support works, i.e. I can view png images. Maybe I'm picky, but I wonder about the message. Is it significant?
So far as I know, it should be okay with 1.5.
The last time I brought up 1.5 was in http://lists.auriga.wearlab.de/pipermail/dillo-dev/2011-May/008286.html and no one replied.
I'm not aware of a reason why we can't rip out all of this libpng version stuff and make life better, but admittedly I'm not a libpng specialist.
I would suggest we try to get rid of the version check after the release. Cheers, Johannes
