7 I'm guessing that file should be a symlink to a longer name, similar
8 to png14:
9
10 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2010-05-10 14:57 /usr/lib/libpng14.so.14 -> libpng14.so.14.2.0*
11 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 149088 2010-05-10 14:57 /usr/lib/libpng14.so.14.2.0*
12
13 Maybe reinstalling png12 would fix it automatically, or you can just
14 rename that file to use the longer name and then create the symlink
15 yourself, using the shorter name.
