  25 Changes since the last public release (1.6.1):
  26
  27   Updated documentation of 1.5.x to 1.6.x changes in iCCP chunk handling.
  28   Fixed incorrect warning of excess deflate data. End condition - the
  29     warning would be produced if the end of the deflate stream wasn't read
  30     in the last row.  The warning is harmless.
  31   Corrected the test on user transform changes on read. It was in the
  32     png_set of the transform function, but that doesn't matter unless the
  33     transform function changes the rowbuf size, and that is only valid if
  34     transform_info is called.
  35   Corrected a misplaced closing bracket in contrib/libtests/pngvalid.c
  36     (Flavio Medeiros).
  37   Corrected length written to uncompressed iTXt chunks (Samuli Suominen).
  38   Added contrib/tools/fixitxt.c, to repair the erroneous iTXt chunk length
  39     written by libpng-1.6.0 and 1.6.1.
  40   Disallow storing sRGB information when the sRGB is not supported.
  41   Merge pngtest.c with libpng-1.7.0
