Debian librrd currently uses libpng2 and libgd1. The librrd in rrdtool
1.1.x uses libpng3, and no longer uses libgd (it uses libart instead), so
this problem will go away when the next stable branch of rrdtool is
released.
I am not sure whether it is desirable to try to fix this another way.
I think this sort of breakage will always happen without versioned symbols
or some other facility for avoiding such conflicts.
