Hi,

Version 6.11.6 of the LDM has been released. Continuing the trend of
version 6.11.5, this version doesn't have the PNG or ZLIB packages
bundled-in -- and for the same reasons: bundling is no longer necessary,
security is enhanced by removing them, and the size of the LDM package is
reduced. You must have the PNG and ZLIB development packages installed in
order to build this version of the LDM. See this version's installation
instructions for details.

This version's homepage is
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-6.11.6.

If you're using version 6.11.5 of the LDM without any problems and don't
care which PNG or ZLIB library the LDM uses, then you needn't upgrade.

This version of the LDM also has some other minor improvements. For
details, please see the file CHANGE_LOG on this version's homepage or in
the top-level source-directory of the distribution.

This version can be downloaded at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/ldm.

As an experiment, this version also has a binary RPM. While the RPM
platform is "fc14.x86_64", it has been successfully installed on an
"fc18.x86_64" system. See this version's installation instructions for
details.

Please report any problems to support-ldm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
LDM Developer
