sudo aptitude -y install libpng3
 
OK. That work for libpng3 but it didn't worked for  libexpat.so.0. I tried
any number of combinations to no avail (i.e libexpat.0. etc.). It doesn't
really seem like this exact library exists although that conclusion is
probably wrong.

I did install the following packages thinking that might work but
unfortunately it didn't:

 libexpat1 libexpat-dev libexpat-ocaml-dev libexpat-ocaml libexpat1-dev 

I probably missing something obviously but any ideas here? Thanks for your
help.
