Suse RPM installation problem

Hello 

I am trying to install the R RPM for Suse 10.0 on an x86_64 PC. However
I am failing a dependency for  "libpng12.so.0" straight away



    PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -i R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
    libpng12.so.0(PNG12_0)(64bit) is needed by R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64

I do seem to have this file

    PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # whereis libpng12.so.0
    libpng12.so: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so 

but presuming that it is not the 64bit version mentioned I went looking
for a 64 bit version but could not find it through google.

However reading the Installation manual I noted that libpng is mention
in the context of a source build. I therefore downloaded "libpng-1.2.18"
(v-1.2.8 or later is specified in the manual) and succesfully compiled
this. This did not however help with my problem.

Any suggestions?

  

Thanks
Stephen Henderson
