Bug#650601: libpng transition and how to deal with embedded copies

[Norbert Preining <preining@logic.at>]

Hi Nobuhiro,

thanks, that are good (and a bit bad) news.

> We re-start this transition with libpng1.6.

Ah, ok.

> And  I am testing build with libpng16[1].

I got information from our TeX Live build Guru Peter Breitenlohner
that libpng1.6 has some unresolved problems with certain png images.
I hope this will be fixed at some point.

> We think that it can provide more detailed information in the next week.

That is good news, so I can wait till after new year, and then target
a experimental upload.
