[Solved] Libpng14 and Wine

I performed a full system upgrade today and ran into a problem with wine.  Every program I try to run is crashing (worked fine before the upgrade).  Here is the error from one of my programs.


err:wincodecs:PngEncoder_CreateInstance Failed writing PNG because unable to find libpng14.so.14


I've read through many of the forum posts in relation to the recent update of libpng here and I just can't figure this one out.

output of pacman -Qm

hal 0.5.14-4
hal-info 0.20091130-1

(HAL is only started when I want to watch something on Amazon)

Also, I've tried installing all dependencies for wine, no luck.  Any ideas?

I tried to do a rebuild of wine with packer -S wine but again no luck.  Any other ideas?

*bump*

I really don't know what to do at this point.  This is a bit over my head.  The other forum posts I have read have suggested *rebuilding* packages and such but I don't know what that means and have discovered  nothing while searching for it.  What I really need is for somebody to just tell me how to make it so my packages will be using the proper dependency.  Not a  "Rebuild the package" but a "Rebuild the package and here's how you do  that" or any other steps I need to take to resolve this problem.

Re: [Solved] Libpng14 and Wine

Maybe this errors has nothing to do with the rebuild. I found this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=131566
It has been posted 2 months before the the libpng rebuild.


Edit: Are you using a 64-bit system? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 71#p947171
You have lib32-mpg123 so you probably are.

Re: [Solved] Libpng14 and Wine

Thank karol.

I know the error has something to do with the rebuild.  Wine was working just fine before I did the system update.  Also, yes, I am on a 64-bit system.  I tried doing a force  reinstall of the package from the first post you linked but still no joy.

Re: [Solved] Libpng14 and Wine

Solved:

Finally got tired of beating around the bush, wiped off everything Wine related (including the .Wine directory), restarted and did a fresh install.   Had to download and reinstall all my games but it's working now :-/
