1. Do not send a bug report if there is no bug! Please read the FAQs and
learn what a bug is.
2. Do not send identical messages a couple of times to many mailing lists.
3. Do read the installation manuals.
4. Install both "libpng" and "libpng-devel" in a way that it
will be
found by R's configure scripts (e.g. into standard locations).
5. Run R's ./configure and check the last lines of the output, png
support should be mentioned, if not, check what ./configure told you at
the point where it looked for libpng.
