Cooker's KDE is based on libpng3, not the libpng2 that comes with Mandrake 8.1.
Install the libpng3 RPM from Cooker, and then run the following as root:
# cd /usr/lib
# rm -f libpng.so.2
# ln -s libpng.so.3 libpng.so.2
Restart X.
I have found that from time to time Mandrake 8.1 chooses to automagically switch
/usr/lib/libpng.so.2 to point back to /usr/lib/libpng.so.2.1.0.12, forcing me to
fix it as above. Is this a bug?
