[Slackbuilds-users] libpng-legacy12.SlackBuild patch for MultiLib

[Jeremy Hansen]

Konrad,

When you compile a 32bit package and intend to install it on a 64bit
system, you should be running convertpkg-compat32 against it before
installing. This will change the package name, add -32 to any binaries, and
some additional maintenance. This should minimize collisions with 64bit
packages.
