A)  Do you really need to install the pkgconfig files in a
non-standard location?  This is the BuildDependsOnly package, and it
Conflicts/Replaces the normal libpng15, right?

B)  Probably more importantly (and why I'm cc'ing core):
I assume that this didn't validate for you.  As I recall I was busy
with other matters (probably Octave) around the time you were getting
feedback on the Wine dependency tree, but I don't recally any mention
that this didn't validate, and would therefore either need to install
its files in a yet more private location or require an extension to
fink's 32-bit type and allowable paths.

As with Martin Costabel's unauthorized extension to install stuff in
/sw/Library/Python, I don't really see the point of _not_ discussing
extensions to fink before committing.  We're in the unpaid open-source
sector here, so what's the incentive to rush things?
