During a rebuild of all packages in unstable, your package failed to build

The issue seems to have been introduced by a new libpng1.6 (not lib**s**png), 
which is used by libspng only as a build-time dependency.

Since this seem related to a breakage in libpng1.6, what do you advise me to 
do? Should I reassing this bug to that package, and marking libspng as affected 
by it?

There is not a general rule to follow in these cases.

When a library change triggers a bunch of similar FTBFS problems in packages 
having
it in their build-depends, it may be the case that there is a bug in the 
library,
but it may also be the case that a lot of packages need to be adapted to the 
new library.

I would ask the library maintainer, as they are probably in the best position 
to answer.

Thanks.
