Hi there,

I recently upgraded my linux distro (RH6 to RH6.2) and now
the gimp chokes on png files created by povray. It complains
about a libpng error (see subject). (Some other viewers can
see the files and some can't.)

I presume that this related to the fact that I now have libpng-1.0.5.

Anyhow, I discovered pngcrush on sourceforge that will fix the png
file so that the gimp will view it, so I have an acceptable solution
but I wondered if anyone can explain what is happening here.

Is this a bug in povray, or a problem with libpng, or something else?

Thanks for any enlightenment,

Martin
