Description:

The luatex binary included with the current package is built against an obsolete version of zlib. This not only prevents luatex from being used directly, but also prevents other executables (e.g., xelatex) from being used since luatex's failures corrupt package-wide caches that the other executables depend on.

Rebuilding the package on a current system that has zlib 1.2.6 installed fixes the problem.
This task depends upon

I have to roll back my comments regarding the severity of the luatex problem. luatex does need rebuilding, but xelatex is still not executing properly even with a recompiled package in place.

Confirmed. At least xetex is broken.

it was rebuilt against it in testing but that is built against libpng15/libtiff4 as well.

to not recompile again the package in testing, better do a 2011.3-1.1 directly in repos/extra-$CARCH

Ah, sorry. I thought this was filled against testing.
xetex from texlive-bin 2011.3-1 (currently in extra) works for me, but the testing package (texlive-bin 2011.3-3) is broken.

Same issue as  FS#28182 .

Please try texlive-bin 2011.3-1.1

I'm running into  FS#28215  when using extra/texlive-bin 2011.3-1.1 with testing/libpng 1.5.7-1
Unfortunately quite a lot of packages here depend on libpng >= 1.5.0

luc@charles ~ % xelatex VNS-SMB.tex
xelatex: error while loading shared libraries: libpng14.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

luc: don't use texlivebin from testing with libpng from extra.
