Linux UBUNTU 18_04_2, Linux MINT 19.1 Quartus 18.1 Lite doesn't start

Hi, after seeking a supported platform, I installed fresh new an Ubuntu 18.02 4 distro, after setting up all board setting and updating installation then I launched QUartus 18.1 lite setup.

Few minute after was installed. Clicking on Icon doesn't start, from CLI this error from library was shown:

quartus: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Browsing forum this is a known old issue, is Quartus beta tested on supported platform?

Clearly Linux Mint 19.1 is based on Ubuntu 18.04: same scenario.

Linux Mint 17.3 has old libraries on or was cured long time ago ...

Why use old library when is no more supported on new distro?
