Package: libturbojpeg1
Version: 1:1.3.1-6
Severity: wishlist
The short description reads: TurboJPEG runtime library - SIMD optimized
The extended description reads:
The libjpeg-turbo JPEG library is a library for handling JPEG files.
libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2,
NEON) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64,
and ARM systems.
This package contains the TurboJPEG shared runtime library.
There are a couple of issues here. The first sentence is probably the shortest sentence to contain both
"JPEG" and "library" 3 times. Some of these mentions are "indirect", but this could
easily be brought down to 2: "libjpeg-turbo is a library for handling JPEG files."
More problematic is the fact that libjpeg-turbo is defined, but never referred
to, while TurboJPEG is referred to, but never defined. One would think these
are equivalent, but http://www.libjpeg-turbo.org/About/TurboJPEG explains that
is not the case.
I would like to offer a solution, but there's a reason why I was reading these
descriptions, and the situation appears non-trivial. The page above suggests "the
TurboJPEG shared runtime library" would be wrong, since it defines TurboJPEG as an
API. However, if libjpeg-turbo builds 2 libraries, that's not clear from upstream's
explanation. This looks like clarification with upstream might be warranted.
