can't seem to start the game at all

I just recently installed planeshift on my arch linux computer. I have tried (at least I think) all ways of starting it. Here is what I tried and the output of each:

simply typing planeshift into the terminal as both a regular and root user:

Running /opt/PlaneShift/psclient.bin:

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

I think the last one is where the problem is at. I have libpng14 installed and because linpng12 is soooo outdated, I don't know why it is still required. How can I get around this?

libs are included in the binary so it has nothing to do with your system wide libpng. run it with gdb after applying the export in the psclient shell script
