echo " There is no \"configure\" script in this distribution of libpng-1.5.9. Instead, please copy the appropriate makefile for your system from the \"scripts\" directory. Read the INSTALL file for more details. Update, July 2004: you can get a \"configure\" based distribution from the libpng distribution sites. Download the file libpng-1.5.9.tar.gz, libpng-1.5.9.tar.xz, or libpng-1.5.9.tar.bz2 If the line endings in the files look funny, which is likely to be the case if you were trying to run \"configure\" on a Linux machine, you may wish to get the other distribution of libpng. It is available in both tar.gz/tar.xz (UNIX style line endings) and .7z/.zip (DOS style line endings) formats. "
