Hello!

I think pkg_add will tell you that png-1.0.2 conflicts with the already
installed png-0.96, so you need to remove that package first
with `pkg_delete png-0.96`. But note that other packages may depend on 
png-0.96, thus you have to remove them too and rebuild/reinstall
them after you installed png-1.0.2.

[Note that this is currently a flaw in the "upgrade strategie" for
 packages; currently we think over a better solution for this
 obvious problem. If you have any thougths about that, the
 tech-pkg maillist is the righ location to discuss this.          ]
