[SOLVED] Desura client

Seems like the desura client is available on linux now (even on 64 bit). Though testing is in closed beta. I've been trying to get it running. Seems like it needs libpng12 and libuicore.so. Can't figure out what package libuicore.so belongs to. Anybody been trying to make a PKGBUILD file?

Re: [SOLVED] Desura client

libuicore.so is desura's own lib. It resides in lib directory of desura installation.
ATM i'm trying to find libpng12 somewhere, as i'm too lazy to build it from source

No wonder i've found it in AUR:
[mburakov@hp desura]$ yaourt -Ss libpng12
archlinuxfr/libpng12 1.2.46-2
    A collection of routines used to create PNG format graphics files
aur/lib32-libpng12 1.2.46-2 (412)
    A collection of routines used to create PNG format graphics files (32-bit,
    1.2 branch)
aur/libpng12 1.2.46-2 (2027)
    A collection of routines used to create PNG format graphics files

BTW it also needs libjpeg6 which can be also found in AUR.
