So this bug is not RC.

Not sure if I fully agree. If I understand correctly the packages that
have a Build-Depends on cge need the Depends/Recommends on libpng (like
view3dscene).

I am testing now if we can detect this in the build of view3dscene, such
that we know how to handle this essentially.
