Package: libpng-dev Version: 1.5.8 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
When is Debian planning to update it's DE basic package support for the newer releases of libpng? Clearly, 1.4.x and 1.5.x seem to be ignored. Are you waiting for GNOME to require GTK 3.x to update it's minimum libpng support to say, 1.6 before updating dependencies in GNOME 3.x? Presently, this is the result for attempting to install libpng-dev (1.5.8) from Experimental: mdriftmeyer@horus:~/DeveloperProjects/LLVMProject/cmake-llvm$ sudo apt-get -t experimental install libpng-dev Reading package lists...
