Hi,

 

I saw some mention of libpng12.dll vs libpng13.dll last month, but just in
case you are not aware of it, there is currently a problem with making a
clean GTK installation in Windows from the posted versions due to this:

 

I just made a clean install of GTK on a new Windows XP laptop. I first ran
the GTK 2.10.11 install from gladewin32.sourceforge.net, and then downloaded
the latest atk, cairo, glib, gtk, pango, gettext, libiconv, libpng,
pkg-config and zlib from Tor's website, and installed these on top of it.
When I've done that before it's given me a working GTK installation, but
this time it didn't - building and then running an app gave a "libpng13.dll
not found" error.

 

The problem seems to be with the libpng link from Tor's site which says
"libpng 1.2.8" but takes you to
"gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libpng.htm" which has libpng-1.2.24.zip,
not 1.2.8. This contains libpng12.dll, not libpng13.dll.

 

I had a previously downloaded libpng-1.2.8.zip saved, and that does contain
libpng13.dll, and installing that on top of the above fixed the problem.

 

Tor - you might want to update your libpng download link to point to a
libpng-1.2.8.zip file somewhere.

 

Ian
