Is this normal?
{{{
OPTIONAL BACKEND DEPENDENCIES
libpng: found, but unknown version (no pkg-config)
}}}
I do have `pkg-config` installed, and
`$SAGE_ROOT/local/lib/pkgconfig/libpng12.pc` (target of a symbolic link
`libpng.pc`) looks like this:
{{{
...
Name: libpng
Description: Loads and saves PNG files
Version: 1.2.35
Libs: -L${libdir} -lpng12
...
}}}
So maybe either `pkg-config` or MPL is confused by the "wrong" `Name: `,
since we patch MPL's `setupext.py`:
{{{

}}}
Probably this patch should only be applied on MacOS X, since
{{{
* setupext.py: link to libpng12 instead of libpng to apparently avoid
some name clashes on OSX.
}}}
(Currently running doctests, so haven't checked if not applying the patch
on Linux changes anything w.r.t. that.)

We should add freetype (and now also GNU patch) to the ''Dependencies'':
{{{
REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES
numpy: 1.5.1
freetype2: 9.16.3
}}}
{{{
== Dependencies ==
* python
* numpy
}}}
