How feasable would it be to install Mozilla's modified libpng in place of the default one onto your own computer? This could possibly make image viewers support apng.

GIMP already has a modified libpng for APNG support which I'm guessing is probably the same thing that Gecko browsers use? On a Linux system I imagine you could just take one of those and put it in the proper directory. Might be trickier on a Windows system.

Although either way your image viewer is still going to need some code in it to actually make use of the libraries.

Some Linux distros already come with apng-patched libpng out of the box, mostly Gentoo- and Arch-based, maybe Mageia too. Not Ubuntu.

The problem is patched libpng only provides some additional functions, some new API. It can't force image viewers to call those functions.

So someone need to write new code for image viewers too.
