It's time for another 7.6 distribution soon. There are a couple of nasty little bugs that have been fixed since the last one, and I said we were going to release a bit more often. No big rush this time though, so if someone has something in perticular they'd like to fix it can wait a week. If not I'll try to make a release this weekend. Take a look at CHANGES and make sure your changes are documented.
Also, the pdflib configure fix didn't quite fix the problem.
AC_CHECK_LIB(z, deflate, [ LIBS="${LIBS-} -lz" ]) AC_CHECK_LIB(jpeg,jpeg_CreateCompress, [ LIBS=${LIBS-} -ljpeg ]) AC_CHECK_LIB(png, png_read_image, [ LIBS="${LIBS-} -lpng" ]) AC_CHECK_LIB(tiff,TIFFOpen, [ LIBS="${LIBS-} -ltiff" ])
Out of curiosity, what's the purpose of the dash in ${LIBS-} ? If LIBS is unset, then $LIBS will expand to the empty string anyway.
