I'm unable to recreate this issue on a jammy system that has been
upgraded from focal. Can you make sure all of your packages are up to
date? After poking through the vim source code there are no references
to libpng12, so it may be some dependency of vim that is out of date
trying to read it.

Title:
vim.gtk3 won't run after 22.04 upgrade: “libpng12.so.0: cannot open
shared object file”
Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After upgrading a system running Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04, vim.gtk3 no
longer runs:
$ vim.gtk3
vim.gtk3: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
(vim.basic still runs fine).
These are the vim packages we have installed, and their versions:
vim:amd64/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
vim-common:all/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
vim-gtk3:amd64/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
vim-gui-common:all/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
vim-runtime:all/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
vim-tiny:amd64/jammy-security 2:8.2.3995-1ubuntu2.1 uptodate
Previously I did have a PPA of Vim installed from
http://ppa.launchpad.net/jonathonf/vim/ubuntu — but that has been
purged, and as you can see all the vim packages now installed are
official Ubuntu jammy versions.
libpng12 isn't in Ubuntu any more, so I think the problem is that vim
is trying to use it, not that it's missing.
Attached is strace output of the failure.
