Unfortunelly, QT3 requires libpng12, as it includes a custom libpng12
version in their source code. Modifying the QT3 source code to use
libpng16-16 is something out of my reach.

I suggest to use the libpng12 packages from Ubuntu Xenial or Debian Jessie,
if possible.

I'm making a step-by-step mini-guide specifying everything needed to
install Rivendell from a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04.

What error message did rdadmin give?

Did you drop any Rivendell database and tried again? I'll try to test this
again tonight.

Thanks you, I'll update the package with your changes. I will make a git
repo in a few days.
