version 1.2.41beta01 [September 25, 2009]
Moved redundant IHDR checking into new png_check_IHDR() in png.c
and report all errors found in the IHDR data.
Eliminated useless call to png_check_cHRM() from pngset.c
Expanded TAB characters in pngrtran.c
version 1.2.41beta02 [September 30, 2009]
Revised png_check_IHDR().
version 1.2.41beta03 [October 1, 2009]
Revised png_check_IHDR() again, to check info_ptr members instead of
the contents of the returned parameters.
version 1.2.41beta04 [October 7, 2009]
Added "xcode" project similar one already in libpng-1.4.0beta (Alam Arias).
Ported some cosmetic changes from libpng-1.4.0beta86.
Eliminated a shadowed declaration of "pp" in png_handle_sPLT().
version 1.2.41beta05 [October 17, 2009]
Revised pngconf.h to make it easier to enable iTXt support. From libpng
version 1.2.9 through 1.2.40, defining PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED did not work
as expected.
Ported some cosmetic changes from libpng-1.4.0beta87, changing
many "#if defined(x)" to "#ifdef x".
version 1.2.41beta06 [October 18, 2009]
Restored PNG_USE_LOCAL_ARRAYS code in pngread.c that was inadvertently
deleted in libpng-1.2.41beta05.
Converted all PNG_NO_* tests to PNG_*_SUPPORTED everywhere except pngconf.h
as in libpng-1.4.0beta78 and later.
version 1.2.41beta07 [October 21, 2009]
Ported some cosmetic changes from libpng-1.4.0rc01, changing
many "#if defined(x)" to "#ifdef x" in png.h and pngconf.h.
version 1.2.41beta08 [October 30, 2009]
Ported from libpng-1.4.0rc01: png_calloc(), png_get_io_chunk_name(),
png_get_io_state(), png_set_user_cache_max(), png_get_user_cache_max(),
png_set_premultiply_alpha, and png_do_read_premultiply_alpha().
Relocated png_do_chop() ahead of building gamma tables in pngrtran.c
This avoids building 16-bit gamma tables unnecessarily.
version 1.2.41beta09 [November 1, 2009]
Removed a harmless extra png_set_invert_alpha() from pngwrite.c
More bugfixes and improvements to CMakeLists.txt (Philip Lowman)
Moved CMakeLists.txt from scripts into the main libpng directory.
Apply png_user_chunk_cache_max within png_decompress_chunk().
Merged libpng-1.2.41.txt with libpng-1.4.0.txt where appropriate.
version 1.2.41beta10 [November 1, 2009]
Enabled iTXt support by default. To ensure binary compatibility with
previous versions, the "lang" and "lang_key" members will be assumed
to be omitted from previous versions unless the current libpng
version was built with PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED (which is otherwise no
longer necessary to gain iTXt support), as a signal that the user has
been building previous versions with PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED as well.
version 1.2.41beta11 [November 2, 2009]
Store user's user_png_ver in new png_ptr->user_png_ver element.
Revised iTXt support. To ensure binary compatibility with
previous versions, the "lang" and "lang_key" members will be assumed
to be omitted from versions prior to 1.2.41beta11 whenever there is a
library mismatch.
version 1.2.41beta12 [November 2, 2009]
Free png_ptr->user_png_ver when destroying png_ptr.
version 1.2.41beta13 [November 3, 2009]
Updated scripts/pngw32.def and projects/wince/png32ce.def
Copied projects/wince/png32ce.def to the scripts directory.
Added scripts/makefile.wce
Patched ltmain.sh for wince support.
Added PNG_CONVERT_tIME_SUPPORTED macro.
version 1.2.41beta14 [November 8, 2009]
versions 1.2.41beta05 through 1.2.41beta13 were abandoned.
The 1.0.x/1.2.x series will only receive security updates from now on.
Make inclusion of time.h in pngconf.h depend on PNG_CONVERT_tIME_SUPPORTED
Make #define PNG_CONVERT_tIME_SUPPORTED depend on PNG_WRITE_tIME_SUPPORTED
Reverted iTXt compatibility stuff from 1.2.41beta05, 1.2.41beta11, and
1.2.41beta12.
Reverted IOSTATE feature, user_cache_max, and premultiply_alpha features
from 1.2.41beta08.
Retained png_calloc() from 1.2.41beta08 but as a non-exported function,
and removed reference to png_calloc from scripts/*.def
version 1.2.41beta15 [November 8, 2009]
Added PNG_DEPSTRUCT, PNG_DEPRECATED, PNG_USE_RESULT, PNG_NORETURN, and
PNG_ALLOCATED macros to detect deprecated direct access to the
png_struct or info_struct members and other deprecated usage in
applications (John Bowler).
Updated scripts/makefile* to add "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" to CFLAGS,
to prevent warnings about direct access to png structs by libpng
functions while building libpng. They need to be tested, especially
those using compilers other than gcc.
Updated projects/visualc6 and visualc71 with "/d PNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG".
version 1.2.41beta16 [November 9, 2009]
Removed three direct references to read_info_ptr members in pngtest.c
that were detected by the new PNG_DEPSTRUCT macro.
Only #define PNG_DEPSTRUCT, etc. in pngconf.h if not already defined.
version 1.2.41beta17 [November 10, 2009]
Updated CMakeLists.txt to add "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" to the definitions.
Marked deprecated function prototypes with PNG_DEPRECATED.
Marked memory allocation function prototypes with PNG_ALLOCATED.
Changed png_check_sig() to !png_sig_cmp() in contrib programs.
Corrected the png_get_IHDR() call in contrib/gregbook/readpng2.c
Added "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" to the contrib/pngminum makefiles.
version 1.2.41beta18 [November 11, 2009]
Renamed scripts/makefile.wce to scripts/makefile.cegcc
Marked nonexported functions with PNG_PRIVATE macro.
version 1.2.41rc01 and 1.0.51rc01 [November 18, 2009]
Revised scripts/*.def to reflect functions actually exported by libpng.
Updated the copyright year in scripts/pngw32.rc from 2004 to 2009.
Moved descriptions of makefiles and other scripts out of INSTALL into
scripts/README.txt
version 1.2.41rc02 [November 22, 2009]
Rebuilt the configure scripts with autoconf-2.65
version 1.2.41rc03 [November 25, 2009]
Disabled the new pedantic warnings about deprecated function use
and deprecated structure access unless the user defines
PNG_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS.
Added "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" in the libpng source files.
Removed "-DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG" from the makefiles and projects.
version 1.2.41 [December 3, 2009]
Updated the list of files and made some cosmetic changes in README.

Inkscape 0.47 brings a host of important improvements all across the program:
* Timed autosave: no more lost work
* Spiro splines: an exciting new way to work with paths, fully supported in
Pen, Pencil, and Node tools
* Auto smooth nodes: a new type of node that keeps the path as smooth as
possible as you move it or its neighbors
* New modes in Tweak tool: pushing and jittering whole objects,
scaling/rotating objects, deleting and duplicating using the "soft brush"
* Reworked, much more usable snapping system and a Snapping toolbar
* New path effects, including sketch, hatching, envelope deformation; effects
can be stacked and assigned to groups
* A huge collection of preset filters in the new Filters menu
* New cairo-based PS and EPS export: improved quality, more features
supported, fallback rasterization for filters and transparency
* Spell checker for text objects in a document
* Many new extensions: restacking, calendar, printing marks, cartesian and
polar grids, interpolating attributes
* Optimized SVG code options, now with their own Preferences page
While here, fixes permissions for documents in post-extract stage to allow
access by unprivilaged users, and it should resolve PR 42366.
Bump PKGREVISION.
This is a bugfix release for the 2.3 series, which brings considerable
improvements for b/w rasterizing of hinted TrueType fonts at
small sizes. All users should upgrade.
with color profiles to implement caching): pass NULL (which disables
the cache), depend on new poppler headers and bump PKGREVISION
(While this is a poppler API change, it is in an unofficial interface,
so inkscape just gets what it deserves.)

momentous, it does not appear to be significant.)
Many minor fixes and enhancements. Notable entries:
- Added new Geosync tag to allow geotagging of images with timestamps which
are not pre-synchronized to GPS time
- Changed conversion of Canon MeasuredEV to correspond more closely to
LightValue (by adding 5 to the MeasuredEV value, which seems to be good for
all EOS models, but it may be high by up to 1 EV for some PowerShot models)
1.2.10:

"Image::BMP" objects can parse and even ASCII view bitmaps of the
.BMP format. It can read most of the common forms of this format.
It can be used to get image info, view images, read images and get
pixel info.
KDE 4.3.3 has a number of improvements that will make your life just a
little bit better. Some of KWin's effects have been smoothed and freed
of visual glitches, JuK should now be more stable, KDE PIM has seen its
share of improvements while in the back-rooms of KDE, the developers are
working hard on porting all applications to the new Akonadi storage and
cache.
