-<h3>External libraries</h3>
-
-<p>Included in this distribution are the most recent versions (as of july
-2006) of the libz, libpng, libjpeg and libtiff libraries. 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. Here is an
-overview.</p>

-<p>If you have a problems with any of those libraries, please first try to
-recompile them using the makefiles supplied by Img. If that works, it's an
-indication that something is wrong with the original distribution of the
-libraries, and you better report it to the instance where you got it.</p>
