i'm trying to install linux-opera but i'm getting an error on libpng.
i'm running 4.3-STABLE, and here's the error output:

i cd'd into /compat/linux/usr/lib and found that there _is_ no
libpng.so.2 or any libpng for that matter. so... how about do i fix
this error? what and where do i have to "make --rebuilddb", if thats
even what it wants?

thanks.
