Re: libpng not found

Hmm....why is it trying to get that particular version?  There is a libpng package in current, but it's 1.2.18-1 .

See ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distrib … t/os/i686/ .

Accidental version bump ... ?

Re: libpng not found

libpng was just updated to 1.2.20 : http://archlinux.org/packages/4126/
It's still strange that current.db.tar.gz was updated on that mirror, but not libpng 7h after.
Maybe you could try sending a mail to the admins of that mirror.
