Sorry, but I have to veto these (but see good news, below)
Just to clarify: "veto" is too strong a word for me to use, since my
name isn't cgf or Corinna. Rather, I "recommend strongly against"
accepting Peter's proposed versions of these packages into the cygwin
distro.
However, it appears that Corinna agrees -- and she CAN use the word
"veto". Also, I interpret her message in this thread to mean that she
is also against incorporating *any* mingw-foo package other than those
strictly needed for cygwin itself -- including any version *I* might
propose.
So, I'll look into updating my versions of mingw-libpng and mingw-jpeg,
and making them setup-installable from cygutils.fruitbat.org.
I appreciate the effort that Peter made, and his generosity in wanting
to share his hard work with the rest of us. Thanks, Peter.
