@ubuntu release team In Debian deferred/2 queue now there is a refactored libpng16 with *real* libpng-dev package, and dropped libpng16-dev one.
Since we want to have only one libpng at each time, I don't think it is a good idea to provide a libpngSONAME-dev package, specially because people will use it, and make the transition always difficult. Of course this is out of xenial scope, so I propose: leave things as is for xenial, without libpng-dev provided or real.. After xenial, sync libpng1.6 from Debian and start the transition before the next Ubuntu Stable. (the transition in Debian will start probably in a month or so, even if I have no authoritative answer from release team yet, after the package will be accepted in experimental I'll wait for the ack). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1524328 Title: libpng 1.6 support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpng/+bug/1524328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
