[solved]Virtualbox seeks file

[Edit: read the edit at post nr3]

Just direct me if this is the wrong forum (or even website)

What I did:
-I installed Archbang
-Removed a few packages (like catfish, batti, geekie, transmission, volume-icon, and 2 or 3 others I was planning to replace or never use)
-I updated
-Then I installed virtual box, made myself part of the virtualbox users group, did the linux kernel thing, restarted.

When I run Virtual box in the terminal I get this error:

VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: libpng15. so. cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

(This was written by hand because I'm having problems with my browser too, but priorities come first)
If any other info is needed for a diagnoses please ask.
I thank you.

Re: [solved]Virtualbox seeks file

I reinstalled cairo-ubuntu. It did not work. Programs like Midori and Feh also complain about the lack of shared libraries and the fonts on my screen are all messed up.

I don't know if im being smart here but, Its probably all the stuff I "-Rnsc"ed at the start.  Excuse my impatience but I'm just going to do a reinstall and bare with those apps.

Thanks so much for replying.

[edit]
EVERYBODY who's installing AB in this timeframe do yourself a favor and read New ArchBang Post-Installation Instructions (Feb 11, 2012)

Its the real post-install instructions I missed. O well, you live and you learn
