That seems to be courtesy of ldconfig. If you have libpng-dev installed, ldconfig finds .so files in the directory with an soname of 'libpng12.so.0', doesn't find a file of that name in the directory, so creates a symlink... even though this was already available in /lib. I'd say this is misbehavior on the part of ldconfig since there's no need for this symlink and no way to get around its creation AFAICS. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
