The (binary) package net-misc/nxclient-3.4.0.7 still contains libraries which depend on libpng12 (the only one in my system) Everything else uses libpng14.so Reproducible: Always
Yes, and we have libpng-1.2.44 which can be installed SLOTted with libpng-1.4.3 for it. Also the ebuild has correct deps, nxclient-3.4.0.5.ebuild: =media-libs/libpng-1.2* nxclient-3.4.0.7.ebuild: =media-libs/libpng-1.2* So there is no bug. You can mail nxclient upstream and ask them to release new version, though.
Could you please reopen this bug. The problem here is that libpng < 1.4.3 has some severe security breaches (s. http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-201010-01.xml). So this is a very urgent requirement, especially because nxserver is dependent on nxclient. That way every nxserver host might be compromised by privilege escalation or denial of service. Is there a way to switch to the new libpng version without waiting for upstream?
