hi.
In cases like this, you want to use apt-cache to see what version of
libpng-dev is available.
apt-cache search libpng-dev
I'm running unstable, so the following line will probably be different
for you.
libpng12-dev - PNG library - development
Usually, addibional sources won't help since they are mirrors. The only
time you want to add entries is if you want to get packages not in the
Debian archive.
Hope this helps.
