libgtkxmhtml-perl build-depends on libpng10-dev only indirectly, through
libgtkxmhtml-dev.  Did you file a bug against the latter?  I can't find
it, but that might be due to the   your script inserted in the
Package header.

IIRC, melanie checks reverse dependencies, so libpng10-0 won't be
removed until no packages depend on it.

Thanks,
