I already tried to mail this before, but it bounced:
It might be a 32-bits versus 64-bits issue.
IF you're running the x86-64 version of OpenSUSE 11.0, try installing
the libpng-devel-32bit package (as far as I can see, am not on 11.0
myself yet).

For other Linux distributions it may be something like that.

In general, for 32-bit apps in a 64-bit O/S, you NEED to install
the 32-bit version of ALL "shared objects" they will be using.
In SuSE the 32-bits ones are in /lib and /usr/lib, while the
(used by the O/S itself) 64-bit ones are in /lib64 cq /usr/lib64
but other distributions may do this "the other way 'round", so that
the 32-bit ones would be in /lib32 cq /usr/lib32
