Package: libcairo2-dev Version: 1.12.2-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I discovered after updating the transition of libpng to the lastest experimental 1.5.10-2 that libpng12-dev points to libpng-dev and libpng12-0 becomes a place holder for libpng-1.5.10-2. Unfortunately, Chrome, Iceweasel both break as they are expecting libpng12 of the 1.2.49-1 variety. Please rebuild cairo against this new transition and also Iceweasel [I can live with Google rebuilding Chrome if they know Debian is making the transition now more prominent with libpng moving away from the 1.2.x branch]. For now I downgraded libpng12 of experimental back to sid but then that screws up apt-get upgrade until I reinstall the experimental version and thus lose Iceweasel/Chrome packages until they are fixed. I can wait for libdirectfb-dev and a few miscellaneous dev packages to be built against this transition. For instance, Inkscape trunk actually looks for libpng12.pc and in order to get around it I created a symlink against libpng.pc under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/ with the following: libpng12.pc -> libpng15.pc Now it compiles but I'll bet they'll be updating their configuration with autoconf/autotools shortly. However, it reminds me that Inkscape 0.48.2 will have to be built against the new libpng-dev/libpng15 sooner rather than later, as well. I know I could purge a large collection of software but I've done this once already and it's getting annoying. I'll have to wait to do apt-update until these annoyance hurdles with the PNG 1.5 library transition is complete. - Marc J.
