error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0

Am trying to install Rockbox installer.  After running the app, I get the following error:

error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have already installed libpng12 earlier this month for another application through AUR and that worked fine.

Where do I start?

thanks

Have you tried issuing pacman -Syu? Upgrading everything may be the solution, I've had this happen a few times.

RockBox is an aur package?  Does the aur package compile it from source?  If it does, you should just be able to recompile.  If its doing something funny and trying to download a prebuilt binary you may be out of luck on that one.  The libpng12 package from AUR is installed on your system?
