Erreur de segmentation (core dumped)

Hi, I tested the following Linux distributions from Germany universal repository:

Debian 10 (buster) x64
MX Linux 21 (Wildflower) x64

Simutrans on both are running fine. This merit is that users could play a recent version of simutrans, rather than older versions provided by the Linux distributions.

When installing simutrans-uni in Ubuntu 22.04.2, at first the game did not start. The error message was:

"error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
