Libpng12-0.dll dependency error

Hi!
In Ubuntu 16.10 based distros I get the libpng12-0.dll dependency error when trying to install WPS Office. I’m running 64-bit install. File version: wps-office_10.1.0.5672-a21_amd64.deb. Do anyone have a solution for this? Can’t seem to find the file in the repos.

It’s the same for TeamViewer. But it’s not Ubuntu fault, libpng12 has been updated to libpng16, so applications must be updated, so we have to wait until then.

Regards.

This worked for me for several application I run that depend on libpng 12. Download libpng 12 by clicking this link:

http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libp/libpng/libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb

Save the .deb to your computer and then in a terminal window, change directory to where the file was downloaded, and type this:

sudo dpkg -i libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb

I had at least two programs which needed this dependency, and both seem to be running fine after doing this install.
