 Changes since the last public release (1.5.7):
-
-Version 1.5.8beta01 [January 15, 2011]
   Removed '#include config.h"' from contrib/libtests/pngvalid.c.  It's not
     needed and causes trouble for VPATH building.
   Moved AC_MSG_CHECKING([if libraries can be versioned]) later to the proper
     location in configure.ac (Gilles Espinasse).
   Fix bug in pngerror.c: some long warnings were being improperly truncated
-    (bug introduced in libpng-1.5.3beta05).
-
-Version 1.5.8rc01 [January 21, 2012]
-  No changes.
-
-Version 1.5.8rc02 [January 25, 2012]
+    (bug introduced in libpng-1.5.4).
   Fixed Min/GW uninstall to remove libpng.dll.a
   Conditionalize the install rules for MINGW and CYGWIN in CMakeLists.txt
