But when I updated my system recently, the latest (unstable) libjpeg-turbo-1.3.0-r2 seems to have taken a giant step backward. Here is the Gentoo changelog for 1.3.0-r2: "Revert back to .so.62 with 2 functions backported from .so.8, namely jpeg_mem_dest() and jpeg_mem_src(). ABIs .so.7 and .so.8 are dead and shouldn't be used anywhere anymore." This sudden change required the re-emerge of a LOT of packages. I have not been able to find any background information on the reason for this change. Does anyone know the story behind this elimination of the newer JPEG ABI's and the step back to .so.62? Has any functionality, such as lossless cropping, been affected? Frank Peters
