they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.

0000033: [PATCH] libpng: New download site
This patch changes the URL to download libpng, since the actual seems to be
offline or lack that particular file
here is a small patch to add libpng to buildroot.
It's the first application which i integrated in the buildroot build
system, so i welcome any comments, feedbacks and/or improvements about
it. I tested it using directfb on a arm/pxa platform, and as far as i
could test it it seems to work.
