I'm sure some of you have seen the warnings generated by libpng 1.6: "known incorrect sRGB profile". Now, this is no big deal, it's just a warning, but I still wanted to look into it further. By my count, there are 800 png files in Enlightenment, of which only 6 have embedded iCC profiles, all from HP. The rest are sRGB colorspace, but do not include a profile. There are some good arguments for this (http://imageoptim.com/color-profiles.html http://www.gballard.net/psd/save_for_web_embed_ICC_profile.html) and since this seems to be the default, I've attached the 6 files with the profiles stripped out. As you can see, it doesn't change the image or the colorspace, it just leaves the calibration up to the end user's system. I haven't been able to find just what's wrong with the HP iCC profile being used that the authors of libpng don't like, but it makes sense to standardize the way profiles are handled anyway. And it has the nice side effect of silencing warnings, even if the Debian/Ubuntu users aren't likely to see them for a couple of years. I can just change the iCC profile instead if you would prefer. I've seen multiple people recommend the Argyll sRGB profile, which is still "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" and is public domain. |

Enlightenment 0.17.99 - Development on the way to 0.18. Requirements: ------------- Must: libc libm libX11 libXext evas ecore ecore-evas ecore-file ecore-ipc ecore-con ecore-imf ecore-x edje eet embryo efreet e_dbus eio xcb xcb-shape xcb-keysyms [png loader in evas, jpeg loader in evas, eet loader in evas, software_x11 engine in evas, buffer engine in evas] NOTE: Users of DR16 will need to rename the $prefix/bin/enlightenment file prior to installing DR17 or it will be overwritten. You can also use the configure --prefix option to put e17 in a separate tree of its own (recommended) like: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/e17 You will, as usual, need to add the subsequent bin dir to your $PATH etc. NOTES: * do NOT use -mfpmath=sse in CFLAGS - we are not sure, but it may have bugs and screws up things in edje, evas and e17. if your gcc uses this by default (which apparently gcc4.x does on amd64), turn it off with a -fpmath=387 in your CFLAGS. * your freetype2 version must be > 2.1.7 * if you do not want security issues make sure sysactions.conf is in /etc/enlightenment (not PREFIX/etc/enlightenment) as this is the first place it looks at. This file is intended to be customized by packagers and system integrators to match your policies and scripts/tools.
