[Rd] png device driver corrupt! (Rbitmap.dll?) (PR#868)
Full_Name: Henrik Bengtsson Version: R 1.2.2 for Windows OS: Windows Me Submission from: (NULL) (216.175.124.217) I downloaded the precompiled Windows version of R v1.2.2 (rw1022) and found out that the png graphical device driver is corrupt. Previous versions have worked just fine for me. EXAMPLE:> png("test.png") > plot(1,1) > dev.off()libpng error: Application must be recompiled; version 1.0.6 was incompatible WORK AROUND: Until a new version comes out, one can simply replace ${R_HOME}/bin/Rbitmap.dll by ditto found in version 1.2.1 (rw1021b1.zip). -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

[Rd] png device driver corrupt! (Rbitmap.dll?) (PR#868)
Just to be clear, this is a problem only with the precompiled versions on CRAN, and the sources for Rbitmap.dll are unchanged since 1.2.0. Indeed, compiling against libpng-1.0.6 works for me, although it is no longer current. Also, it is the build that is corrupt not the png device driver (which is not in that DLL).
