Title:
  libpng needs update on x86_64

Status in libpng package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Libpng needs to be updated to a later version than version 1.2 on
  x86_64. The reason is that version 1.2 assumes sizeof(unsigned long
  int)==4, which is not true on Linux x86_64

  
  Message from GCC:

  error: cannot convert 'uint32_t* {aka unsigned int*}' to 'png_uint_32* {aka long unsigned int*}' for argument '3' to 'png_uint_32 png_get_pHYs(png_structp, png_infop, png_uint_32*, png_uint_32*, int*)'
       , &res_x, &res_y,&unit);

  
  In version 1.6 (I use that version when compiling on windows)

  #if INT_MIN < -2147483646 && INT_MAX > 2147483646
     typedef int png_int_32;
  #elif LONG_MIN < -2147483646 && LONG_MAX > 2147483646
     typedef long int png_int_32;
  #else
  #  error "libpng requires a signed 32 bit (or more) type"
  #endif

  #if UINT_MAX > 4294967294
     typedef unsigned int png_uint_32;
  #elif ULONG_MAX > 4294967294
     typedef unsigned long int png_uint_32;
  #else
  #  error "libpng requires an unsigned 32 bit (or more) type"
  #endif

  Clearly, this bug is fixed in version 1.6.

  
  I could install my own libpng, but since this is a very central library I feel that it could be risky and I do not have time to recompile the hole system just for an old library. Suggestion: Fix this for version 14.10 (it strange that a newer libpng did not enter 14.04 LTS)
