First ... you should not top post to the mailing list :D There are some guidelines to posting on the Mailing Lists here: http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=16 Specifically, we prefer the "Interleaved text" method described here: http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2000/06/14/quoting.html On to your question ... It looks like you have a version of libpng12.so.0 that does not have something that is needed by the rest of the system. The "/opt/zenoss/lib/libpng12.so.0" seems to no like FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden that is in /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2. What probably needs to happen is that you need to install the CentOS version of libpng from our updates repository which contains /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 and it has all the right things for the other GUI apps. I have no idea how you installed zenoss or if it needs a custom libpng library, but the one you have installed is not working with CentOS.
