    Hi,

    Are you using any external library with your application that also makes use if libpng ?

      @SGaist - hm, I am linking with numerous third-party .so libraries. What is the best way to determine their possible dependence on libpng? Thanks!

          @Christian-Ehrlicher - 'ldd myprog | grep libpng' does not show any result, so I assume that means myprog doesn't rely on libpng dynamic library. What else should I check? Thanks!

            You should check all the third party libraries you are using.

              @SGaist - Thanks - what tool should I use to check these libraries?

                  @SGaist - Hm, checked all of them with ldd - none show 'libpng*' in the list

                      @SGaist - I do not think so, at least I didn't create any. To be sure I ran 'ldd -u -d -r ' on all *plugin.so files in my Qt5.13.0 directory, none of them show dependency on libpng.
                      Obviously something is invoking libpng routines, but I haven't found libpng dependency with ldd in any of my app's libraries....???

                        Can you provide a full stack trace of your crash ?

                            Can you start your application with the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable set 1 ?

                              @SGaist - Thank you. I do that and output shows multiple image libraries being loaded:

                              loaded library "/home/oreilly/Qt/5.13.0/gcc_64/plugins/imageformats/libqgif.so"
loaded library "/home/oreilly/Qt/5.13.0/gcc_64/plugins/imageformats/libqicns.so"

loaded library "/home/oreilly/Qt/5.13.0/gcc_64/plugins/imageformats/libqjpeg.so"

loaded library "/home/oreilly/Qt/5.13.0/gcc_64/plugins/imageformats/libqwebp.so"

                              However these do not include libpng.so - probably because before building Qt I configured it to use my system's libpng; "./configure -system-libpng", while is libpng16. What else might the problem be?

                                  @SGaist - Thanks very much for your help!
                                  I discovered which library is causing the problem. It's a non-Qt library that doesn't directly rely on libpng, but it does rely on 50+ other libraries - apparently one of those does directly or indirectly rely on libpng. Apparently ldd doesn't show recursive dependencies, which surprises me. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15064685/does-ldd-also-show-dependencies-of-dependencies/15064784#15064784

                                      @SGaist - the segfault occurs when I link with /usr/local/lib/libgmt.so.6.0.0, for the Generic Mapping Tools. I built the library from source and installed on this system. Yet when I run 'ldd /usr/local/lib/libgmt.so.6.0.0' it does not display any dependency on libpng - I don't understand why...

                                        @SGaist - also tried installing libgmt-dev (rather than building myself) - I get the same segfault due to "Incompatible libpng version in application and library"

                                          What is surprising is that you build everything with system dependencies and yet you have two different png libraries.
