These are not -required for compilation of libimg, unless you need support for the PNG, JPEG -or TIFF formats. If your system already has shared libraries for these -formats, probably it will already work with this package. Otherwise the tools -are here to build it any time later.</p> - -<p>If your system already has later versions than the ones distributed -together with Img, it is recommended that you always use the latest available -version. In the case of JPEG no promise is made that future versions of the -JPEG library keep binary compatiblility, so it might be that you need to -recompile Img using the latest JPEG header files. If you don't want the -trouble of recompiling Img, it's problably best to stick with libjpeg 6b.</p> - -<p>If you want more information about the external libraries, all of them have -the latest information readily available on the internet. Img uses unmodified -versions of those libraries, except that it provides its own set of makefiles. -The reason for this is that not all libraries supply very good support for -building them as a shared library. But if you already have them available as a -shared library, there should be no need to rebuild them.
