Well-spotted, but how to fix it? Lots of executables end up linked with libpng12 due to other libs (cairo, gdk-pixbuf2) being linked with it. Neither -lpng12 or -lpng is added explicitly. > -Wl,--as-needed in LDFLAGS > (in addition to RPM_LD_FLAGS) is one easy way that can be applied in > many cases to get rid of unnecessary linkage bloat. Last time that has come up (long ago!) it didn't work for me. Still doesn't.
