What I still don't understand is the following additional change you also suggest: > $ diff libpng-1.2.9beta7/ltmain.sh libpng-1.2.9beta11 > 3248c3248 > < current=`expr $number_major + $number_minor - 1` > --- > > current=`expr $number_major + $number_minor` > 3323c3323 > < major=`expr $current - $age + 1` > --- > > major=`expr $current - $age` There is a comment above this code that explains why this should be necessary, no? > For BeOS try adding 'none' to the end of the test for darwin|linux|osf|windows > on line 3237 of ltmain.sh.
