-
-libpng-1.0.3:
-
- Replaced and extended code that was removed from png_set_filler() in 1.0.1a.
- Fixed a bug in png_do_filler() that made it fail to write filler bytes in
- the left-most pixel of each row (Kevin Bracey).
- Changed "static pngcharp tIME_string" to "static char tIME_string[30]"
- in pngtest.c (Duncan Simpson).
- Fixed a bug in pngtest.c that caused pngtest to try to write a tIME chunk
- even when no tIME chunk was present in the source file.
- Fixed a problem in pngrutil.c: gray_to_rgb didn't always work with 16-bit.
- Fixed a problem in png_read_push_finish_row(), which would not skip some
- passes that it should skip, for images that are less than 3 pixels high.
- Interchanged the order of calls to png_do_swap() and png_do_shift()
- in pngwtran.c (John Cromer).
- Added #ifdef PNG_DEBUG/#endif surrounding use of PNG_DEBUG in png.h .
- Changed "bad adaptive filter type" from error to warning in pngrutil.c .
- Fixed a documentation error about default filtering with 8-bit indexed-color.
- Separated the PNG_NO_STDIO macro into PNG_NO_STDIO and PNG_NO_CONSOLE_IO
- (L. Peter Deutsch).
- Added png_set_rgb_to_gray() and png_get_rgb_to_gray_status() functions.
- Added png_get_copyright() and png_get_header_version() functions.
- Revised comments on png_set_progressive_read_fn() in libpng.txt and example.c
- Added information about debugging in libpng.txt and libpng.3 .
- Changed "ln -sf" to "ln -s -f" in makefile.s2x, makefile.lnx, and makefile.sco.
- Removed lines after Dynamic Dependencies" in makefile.aco .
- Revised makefile.dec to make a shared library (Jeremie Petit).
- Removed trailing blanks from all files.
- Removed misplaced #endif and #ifdef PNG_NO_EXTERN near the end of png.h
- Added "if" tests to silence complaints about unused png_ptr in png.h and png.c
- Changed "check_if_png" function in example.c to return true (nonzero) if PNG.
- Changed libpng.txt to demonstrate png_sig_cmp() instead of png_check_sig()
- which is obsolete.

+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
