Description: PNG library - development
 libpng is a library implementing an interface for reading and writing
 PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format files.
 .
 This library is more recent than libpng2, and you should use it rather
 than libpng2 (which is for legacy packages).
 .
 Unless you are careful, don't just blindly switch from libpng2
 to libpng3 when you are compiling shared libraries

This is on sid, though.

HTH,
Steve
