Package: libpng16-16
Version: 1.6.20-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to install this package and I got the following result:

Preparing to unpack .../libpng16-16_1.6.20-2_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking libpng16-16:amd64 (1.6.20-2) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libpng16-16_1.6.20-2_amd64.deb (--unpack): unable to install new version of '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16': No such file or directory

Examining the .deb in midnight commander shows a broken symlink, but the destination exists.

I had to install the previous version of the depending package. That one installed libpng12.

I think it might be getting confused because I did the usrmerge and /lib is a symlink.
