+ libpng-1.4.8-LICENSE.txt
+
+Changes since the last public release (1.4.7):
+
+ Undef "_ALL_SOURCE" for AIX, to prevent "jmpbuf" from being redefined.
+ Copied png_debug macros from pngpriv.h into pngtest.c and removed
+ "#include pngpriv.h" from pngtest.c, to avoid setting a bad example.
+ Pass "" instead of '\0' to png_default_error() in png_err(). This mistake
+ was introduced in libpng-1.2.20beta01.
+ Check for up->location !PNG_AFTER_IDAT when writing unknown chunks
+ before IDAT.
+ Ported bugfix in pngrtran.c from 1.5.3: when expanding a paletted image,
+ always expand to RGBA if transparency is present.
+ Ported bugfix in pngrtran.c from 1.5.3: Ensure coefficients are OK for
+ png_rgb_to_gray_fixed(); check for integer overflow in
+ png_set_rgb_to_gray().
+ Fixed uninitialized memory read in png_format_buffer() (Bug report by
+ Frank Busse, related to CVE-2004-0421).
+ Fixed error in "ACCURATE" 16-to-8 scaling (John Bowler).
+ Check for sCAL chunk too short.
