I can confirm the bug.
The fix is simply a matter of editing debian/libpng3.links file in the
package and changing the first line to /lib/libpng12.so.0
/usr/lib/libpng.so.3

Title:
libpng12-0 could do with an extra symlink for compatibility
--
ubuntu-bugs
The original bug report was inaccurate; if you want the compatibility
symlink of libpng.so.3, you should install the libpng3 package.
But as the last comments show, the move of libpng from /usr/lib to /lib
has broken the symlink in the libpng3 compatibility package, so this
needs to be fixed.
**
I created a symlink from /usr/lib/libpng.so.3 to /lib/libpng12.so.0.44.0
But, I got the following error:
smw: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.3: wrong ELF class:
ELFCLASS64

libpng12-0 could do with an extra symlink
Maverick amd64 Beta; libpng3 1.2.44-1 creates a symlink libpng.so.3 -
libpng12.so.0 in /usr/lib, expecting it to find there. That link is now
broken because of missing target, resulting in 3rd party apps as Phun
complaining about missing libpng.so.3 (which is not phun at all).
The question is
As of Lucid amd64, the bug is still here.
The package libpng3 should install /usr/lib/libpng.so.3 as a compatibility
symlink to /lib/libpng12.so.0.42.0 but it doesn't.
