That means you need to install libpng mingw version.

You can ask, no problem.

In my Fedora 37 box, as of now, I had to install
mingw64-libpng-static and mingw64-zlib-static. Build steps:

    $ autoreconf -if
    $ mingw64-configure
...
    vdagent-win 0.10.0.68-5017
    ================

    prefix:   /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw
    datadir:  /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share
    compiler: x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
    cxxflags: -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions --param=ssp-buffer-size=4
    cppflags:

   $ mingw64-make
...
   $ ll *.xe
.rwxr-xr-x@ 605k toso  7 Feb 13:45   -I  vdagent.exe*
.rwxr-xr-x@ 210k toso  7 Feb 13:45   -I  vdservice.exe*

   $ make msi
...
    GEN      spice-vdagent-x64-0.10.0.68-5017.msi


Feel free to submit a documentation patch for build process ;)

Cheers,
Victor
