Libpng 1.6.2 - April 25, 2013

This is a public release of libpng, intended for use in production codes.

Files available for download:

Source files with LF line endings (for Unix/Linux) and with a
"configure" script

   libpng-1.6.2.tar.xz (LZMA-compressed, recommended)
   libpng-1.6.2.tar.gz

Source files with CRLF line endings (for Windows), without the
"configure" script

   lpng162.7z  (LZMA-compressed, recommended)
   lpng162.zip

Other information:

   libpng-1.6.2-README.txt
   libpng-1.6.2-LICENSE.txt

Changes since the last public release (1.6.1):

  Updated documentation of 1.5.x to 1.6.x changes in iCCP chunk handling.
  Fixed incorrect warning of excess deflate data. End condition - the
    warning would be produced if the end of the deflate stream wasn't read
    in the last row.  The warning is harmless.
  Corrected the test on user transform changes on read. It was in the
    png_set of the transform function, but that doesn't matter unless the
    transform function changes the rowbuf size, and that is only valid if
    transform_info is called.
  Corrected a misplaced closing bracket in contrib/libtests/pngvalid.c
    (Flavio Medeiros).
  Corrected length written to uncompressed iTXt chunks (Samuli Suominen).
  Added contrib/tools/fixitxt.c, to repair the erroneous iTXt chunk length
    written by libpng-1.6.0 and 1.6.1.
  Disallow storing sRGB information when the sRGB is not supported.
  Merge pngtest.c with libpng-1.7.0
