You need to install development files for libpng. On Debian they are provided by the package libpng12-dev:

boris@pippin:~$ dpkg -S /usr/include/png.h libpng12-dev: /usr/include/png.h

This can be a temporary workaround, but not the final solution. MetaPost should build without having libpngxy-dev installed. (Btw: I have /opt/local/include/png.h, but it didn't find it since the proper flags CFLAGS=-I/opt/local/include were missing anyway.) Mojca
