Please read this information carefully before reporting bugs about
IMPlugIn to me.

After installing IMPlugIn you should always call  ldconfig  as root.


The shared library name of libpng changed from  libpng.1.0.89  (version 0.89c)
to  libpng.0.96  (version 0.96). The later one is surely the rigth choice for
it, but it causes two problems:

1) When both versions 0.89c and 0.96 of libpng are installed, dynamic linking
   and loading will always use the older library because it's major number,
   the first number in the shared library name, is higer then the major number
   of the newer library.
   Therefore all files  libpng.so.1*  should be deinstalled.

2) Removing the files  libpng.so.1*  will make all programs unexecutable,
   that are linked against it, because the dynamic loader cannot find a
   shared library with major number 1, but only one with major number 0.
   This can be solved by replacing the string "libpng.so.1" with
   "libpng.so.0" in the affected executable binaries !!
   (and keep your fingers crossed, when running them)
