[mrtg] Re: Does anyone know what this is trying to tell me?

[Ian Stong]

I had the same problem.  For me the problem was I had installed libpng 1.0.6
a long time ago then installed the latest v 1.0.8.   When I installed 1.0.6
I installed it as a shared library - i.e. I did a make install which copied
the files over to the /usr/local/lib directory.  When I upgraded to mrtg
2.9.8 recently I followed the install doc verbatim.  The install does not
specify installing as shared libraries (I didn't do a make install).

One of two things fixed it for me (I did both prior to trying again so not
sure which did it for me).  I deleted the old library files in
/usr/local/lib and I installed the various packages using make install to
install as shared libraries.   Give one or both of those a try.

Sorry if you get this twice. I sent it once but never got a copy back and
I did not get any replies.

Hi all,
I am trying to get mrtg running. All went well until I tried to run mrtg.
I get the following error :

libpng error: Application must be recompiled; version 1.0.6 was incompatible

I do not know what this is trying to tell me verssion 1.0.6 of what is
incompatiable and needs to be recompiled. I am using the following
versions of rpms as supplied by redhat:

mrtg-2.8.12-7
gd-1.8.3-4
gd-devel-1.8.3-4
libpng-1.0.8-1
libpng-devel-1.0.8-1

None of these are version 1.0.6. I am at a loss. I have looked through
all of the documentation I can find including the faq. If I missed
something please point me to it.

TIA,
