syntax error in VERSION script

[shariefbe]

when cross compiling libpng i get this error. I googled for it but i didnt get exact answer. Anybody knows what will be the problem?

/mnt/freescale/toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.4.1/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld:libpng.vers:2: syntax error in VERSION script
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

i have these content inside "libpng.vers"

PNG12_0 {global:
local: *; };

Dear shariefbe:

I came across the same problem these days when cross-compiling libpng and found that it can be solved by simply remarking the line containing libpng.vers in your MAKEFILE (adding a # character in the beginning of that line). Your application will be able to link the compiled libpngl2.a and successfully run on ARM based devices.

Good luck!
