[CF List] "Couldn't create lockfile" in FreeBSD

[Mark Wedel]

 png 1.2.0 should be fine.  If it is installed in a non standard location (eg,
not /usr/lib), you need to provide some options to configure so that it finds
it.  I don't remember the exact option, but configure --help should show you all
the options, and the one you need should be pretty obvious.

 Also, I'm not sure how freebsd does its packages, but I know that for linux, in
many cases the developer version of a library is an additional piece you need to
get and install.  crossfire and the client need the developer pieces of png and
gtk to compile and work.
