This test failure in Image-PNG-FileConvert is apparently caused by an underlying stack-smashing bug in its dependency Image-PNG-Libpng, for which I've submitted this fix: https://github.com/benkasminbullock/image-png-libpng/pull/22 The reason the underlying bug was tickled by this commit is that gcc's -fstack-protector-strong option causes the stack-smashing to be met with an immediate abort. I believe there's no core bug to be fixed here, so I'm resolving this ticket. Thanks. -- Aaron Crane ** http://aaroncrane.co.uk/Thread Previous
