Description:

During today system upgrade I got the following messages:

( 2/243) upgrading libpng [#################################] 100%

...

( 36/243) upgrading dconf [#################################] 100%
gtk-update-icon-cache: error while loading shared libraries: libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
error: command failed to execute correctly

...

( 38/243) upgrading gdk-pixbuf2 [#################################] 100%
g_module_open() failed for /usr/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-svg.so: libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


After reinstalling dconf and gdk-pixbuf2 I didn't get the errors again.

What I guess what happened is that these packages in their install scripts use some other package which depends on libpng, and which was not updated in time. This package should be upgraded earlier.

I attach full upgrade log.
