I rebuild the sid version on Sarge without problems and now chimear
works on several pages where it used to crash badly with the above
error (including www.debian.org)
Good. The sid version includes some changes to the source code to work with libpng12, which has a slightly different API.
sid version requires libpng12-dev. Since a trivial recompile (I tried
this first) did not help,
I would have expected that recompiling using the libpng2-dev corresponding to the libpng2 that you want to use it with ought to work - if not that's a serious bug in the libpng2 packages, since it will stop anything from working with it properly.
If you can nail down the problem and convince Joey that a minimal
modified chimera could enter Sarge at the next dot-release, fine,
otherwise you can close this bug (with the proper versioning, of
course).
I'll close the bug.
Thanks for maintaining chimera2, it is probably the oldest "unchanged"
browser for Debian, a good "way-back" machine.
When I first packaged it I actually used it most of the time. Back then, although a high proportion of commercial web sites wouldn't work properly with it, most sites with useful content on worked very well.
