Bug#500592: Using pngcrush warns of different versions for png.c and png.h
Kapil Hari Paranjape said at 30/09/2008 01:51: Here is what is written in the changelog regarding closing #203020 * debian/patches/pngcrush_relocate_warning: relocated warning about different versions to verbose header. Closes: #203020. The keyword is relocated as opposed to eliminated. Since this bug does not affect the core functionality of pngcrush, I am reducing the severity to minor. The full story follows. The Debian binary package makes use of the dynamically loadable libpng for a number of reasons. The warning indicates that libpng has been upgraded but pngcrush has not been re-compiled. The upstream author provides a version of pngcrush that uses its own version of the png routines and feels that this is a better way to do things. However, in order to make it easier for Debian, this -nolib version is also provided. Thus, the warning when there is a mis-match. Originally, the warning appeared everytime pngcrush was run which was annoying, especially when it was run in cron scripts. Thus the warning has been _relocated_ to be shown only when pngcrush is run in verbose mode or when you explicitly ask for version info. Hope this clarifies matters, Hi Kapil, Thanks for the clarification. It appears the change was made for 1.6.4-4 whereas etch has 1.6.4-3 which explains why I see the warning every time the program is run. Very annoying but as you say does not affect the core functionality of pngcrush. I guess this bug can be merged with 203020 and closed. Apologies for the noise.
