[Slapt-get-devel] BUG(?): Error with libidn package.

You're probably right about that.
But as a temporary fix I just added libidn to the exlude list of 
slapt-getrc.

Good to hear that the libpng error has to do with gthumb. gthumb I 
really don't care too much about. But it would be worse if there was 
something wrong with libpng itself, because that could inflict on many 
applications :o Eg, firefox, the gimp, even KDE itself I suppose.
