Hi @ all,
at first: I'm a german pupil and English is not my favourite subject so please excuse my bad English.
I had installed libpng-1.2.
Then I changed the mirror for pacman from ftp://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.arch … po/os/i686 to ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/i686 because there was the new Firefox-3.6. I installed it and with it the libpng-1.6. But with the new libpng X did not start, so I downgraded to libpng-1.2. But now some applications say:
error while loading shared libraries: libpng14.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If I install the libpng-1.4, some applications say:
error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
And for example Gimp doens't work right since this operation. How can I tell the applocations, that they only need one of them? ^^
I would be happy if someone can help me

i'm going to guess that you did pacman -Sy firefox which pulled in the updated libpng without updating all the other apps that depend on it.
you need to pacman -Syyu && pacman -S firefox.

So I did a 'pacman -Syyu' and now it works Maby the cause is the new X server.
Thank you!

No, it works because you did a complete upgrade now, which you probably didn't do before .

I had a problem with building the new libpng. autoconf was missing. Should that be in the packagebuild?
