-If configure does not work on your system and you have a reasonably

wherever you got libpng. zlib can be placed in another directory,
at the same level as libpng.
+If your system already has a preinstalled zlib you will still need
+to have access to the zlib.h and zconf.h include files that
+correspond to the version of zlib that's installed.
+
+If you wish to test with a particular zlib that is not first in the
+standard library search path, put ZLIBLIB, ZLIBINC, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS,
+and LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your environment before running "make test"
+or "make distcheck":
+
+ZLIBLIB=/path/to/lib export ZLIBLIB
+ZLIBINC=/path/to/include export ZLIBINC
+CPPFLAGS="-I$ZLIBINC" export CPPFLAGS
+LDFLAGS="-L$ZLIBLIB" export LDFLAGS
+LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$ZLIBLIB:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+
+If you are using one of the makefile scripts, put ZLIBLIB and ZLIBINC
+in your environment and type "make ZLIBLIB=$ZLIBLIB ZLIBINC=$ZLIBINC test".

If you want to use "cmake" (see www.cmake.org), type
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path
make
make install

You can rename the directories that you downloaded (they
-might be called "libpng-x.y.z" or "libpngNN" and "zlib-1.2.5"
-or "zlib125") so that you have directories called "zlib" and "libpng".
+might be called "libpng-x.y.z" or "libpngNN" and "zlib-1.2.7"
+or "zlib127") so that you have directories called "zlib" and "libpng".
Your directory structure should look like this:
depcomp, install-sh, mkinstalldirs, test-pngtest.sh
contrib
gregbook
+ libtests
pngminim
pngminus
pngsuite
Further information can be found in the README and libpng-manual.txt
files, in the individual makefiles, in png.h, and the manual pages
libpng.3 and png.5.

+Using the ./configure script -- 16 December 2002.
+=================================================
+
+The ./configure script should work compatibly with what scripts/makefile.*
+did, however there are some options you might need to add to configure
+explicitly, which previously was done semi-automatically (if you didn't edit
+scripts/makefile.* yourself, that is)
+
+CFLAGS="-Wall -O -funroll-loops \
+-malign-loops=2 -malign-functions=2" ./configure --prefix=/usr/include \
+--with-pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib/pkgconfig --includedir=/usr/include
+
+You can alternatively specify --includedir=/usr/include, /usr/local/include,
+/usr/include/libpng%NN%, or whatever.
+
+If you find that the configure script is out-of-date or is not supporting
+your platform properly, try running autogen.sh to regenerate "configure",
+"Makefile.in", and the other configuration files. Then try configure again.
