Description Andreas Wiese 2014-12-12 09:30:09 UTC 
media-sound/spotify's DEPEND lists media-libs/libpng:1.2 as a dependency, despite the fact, that the spotify binary actually is linked against libpng16:

aw@swiftsure:~> ldd /opt/spotify/spotify-client/spotify | grep libpng 
	libpng16.so.16 => /usr/lib64/libpng16.so.16 (0x00007ffff0310000)
aw@swiftsure:~> 

Besides the effect, that spotify would fail to load if not something else was dependent on libpng16 and it would've been installed anyways, this also (unnecessarily) keeps libpng:1.2 around when otherwise unused.

Reproducible: Always
