It's best to depend on "libjpeg-dev" rather than a specific version, this
way you can use whatever future default may change to.

I meant instead of "libpng12-dev | libpng-dev".  The buildds strip any
alternative dependencies but the first, thus your package will become
unbuildable when the png16 transition starts in a few days.

I did not mean "please drop libjpeg, libbmp or libpcx" :)
