Adding it to amule-daemon Depends will do nothing, since it's disabled at build time (and, also, adding it to Build-Depends will *not* make ever other package depend on it). The problem is that the configure script chokes on versions which are not X.Y.Z, like the current 1.2.15beta5, thus disabling libpng support (despite what the "Libraries aMule will use to build" section says). I've added a patch to fix this behavior: http://people.debian.org/~adeodato/code/packages/amule/debian/patches/configure_proper_libpng_detection.diff I'm building a new version of the package right now. > This has been reported upstream: > http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=12630.0 I'm not registered in the forum, so I cannot comment there; feel free to share this diagnostic and/or patch there.
