Building server from source

Post by wrldruler »

I am having an issue building from source, I get an error when ./configure is checking for png_check_sig and it says I need libpng installed. I checked and I do have that installed. After a little research I discovered that the most recent version of libpng has replaced png_check_sig with png_sig_cmp. If I am running this on a headless server, is libpng absolutely required? And if it is not, how do I disable it during build?

It's not required, and the check is indeed disabled for the dedicated server build. You'll need to run configure with the '--disable-glout' switch.
