libpng12 missing from repos

Hello!
I am trying to use quartus 2 which needs the libpng12 library. I know libpng12 isn't the final version of the libpng library and probably will be forked into libpng. Is it now done? How can I get quartus 2 working with no libpng12 or do I have to download it from somewhere else? I tried to yaourt libpng12 and the compiler crashed on me the first time in the history of using arch linux:

checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/tmp/yaourt-tmp-tuoppi/aur-lib32-libpng12/src/libpng-1.2.51':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Should I "link" libpng12 to libpng?
I am out of ideas. Can anyone of you help?

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libpng12

Try without yaourt with makepkg -si

Re: libpng12 missing from repos

Do you have the base-devel group installed?

Yes I do have it. I forgot to say I actually got the problem with lib32-libpng12 package. I tried couple of other packages and they compiled well.

Re: libpng12 missing from repos

It has been moved to the AUR.
If you find a wiki article that hasn't yet been updated, please fix it yourself.

Re: libpng12 missing from repos

It looks like the PKGBUILD is missing gcc-multilib as a makedepends.

Maybe you need multilib-devel, I'm not sure

Would I still be able to compile 64-bit packages if I replace gcc with gcc-multilib (as well as other multilib dependencies)?

Yes you are, it adds the ability to compile the lib32 librarys on the top.

Re: libpng12 missing from repos

Yes. Now everything works like a charm. Apparently I've never before compiled 32-bit packages on a 64-bit system. Thank all of you!
