Yes, I'm using "-system-libpng."

No longer a problem. I don't know the original cause. I deleted all packages, did some minor house cleaning in my build environment, and rebuilt the packages. No more toolbar icon problems with Kate.

The only noticeable problem is Amarok does not build properly in 13.1. The locale and HTML help files do not compile into the package. The packages builds as expected in 12.2 using the same build script. I need to fix that because my build scripts are available to anybody who visits my web site.
