Changes since the last public release (1.4.4):
version 1.4.5beta01 [September 25, 2010]
Fixed possible configure.ac bug introduced in version 1.4.4rc05.
Rebuilt configure scripts with autoconf-2.68 instead of autoconf-2.65
version 1.4.5beta02 [October 5, 2010]
Reverted configure scripts to autoconf-2.65
Fixed problem with symbols creation in Makefile.am which was assuming that
all versions of cpp write to standard output by default (Martin Banky). The
bug was introduced in libpng-1.2.9beta5.
version 1.4.5beta03 [October 8, 2010]
Wrapped long lines in CMakeLists.txt and introduced ${libpng_public_hdrs}
Undid Makefile.am revision of 1.4.5beta02.
version 1.4.5beta04 [November 8, 2010]
Check for out-of-range text compression mode in png_set_text().
version 1.4.5rc01 [November 19, 2010]
No changes.
version 1.4.5beta05 [November 21, 2010]
Removed some extraneous parentheses that appeared in pngrutil.c of
libpng-1.4.3beta01
Revised png_get_uint_32, png_get_int_32, png_get_uint_16 (Cosmin)
Moved reading of file signature into png_read_sig (Cosmin)
Fixed atomicity of chunk header serialization (Cosmin)
Added test for io_state in pngtest.c (Cosmin)
Added "#!/bin/sh" at the top of contrib/pngminim/*/gather.sh scripts.
version 1.4.5beta06 [November 21, 2010]
Restored the parentheses in pngrutil.c; they are needed when the
png_get_*int_*() functions are compiled (i.e., when PNG_USE_READ_MACROS
is not defined).
Make the "png_get_uint_16" macro return a png_uint_32 in libpng-1.4 for API
compatibility.
Changes to remove gcc warnings (John Bowler)
Certain optional gcc warning flags resulted in warnings in libpng code.
With these changes only -Wconversion and -Wcast-qual cannot be turned on.
Changes are trivial rearrangements of code. -Wconversion is not possible
for pngrutil.c (because of the widespread use of += et al on variables
smaller than (int) or (unsigned int)) and -Wcast-qual is not possible
with pngwio.c and pngwutil.c because the 'write' callback and zlib
compression both fail to declare their input buffers with 'const'.
