Please sync libpng 1.2.35-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
Ubuntu changes can be dropped as the CVE fixes are in Debian and the ECHO
fix was incorporated in 1.2.29

Changelog since current karmic version 1.2.27-2ubuntu2:

libpng (1.2.35-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * New upstream release
    - http://secunia.com/advisories/33970/
      Fix a vulnerability reported by Tavis Ormandy in which

      Closes: #516256
    - http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-5907
      The png_check_keyword function in pngwutil.c in libpng, might
      allow context-dependent attackers to set the value of an
      arbitrary memory location to zero via vectors involving
      creation of crafted PNG files with keywords, related to an
      implicit cast of the '\0' character constant to a NULL pointer.
  * Don't build libpng3 when binary-indep target is not called.
    Closes: #486415
