This is the list of the affected files:This was intentional to produce transitions with the correct aspect ratio. The PGM images cannot be simply gzip compressed because the PGM reader in MLT is not integrated with zlib. Instead, the package can use the configure option --luma-compress to output compressed PNG. However, these are 8-bit instead of the 16-bit PGM, which provides better quality transitions. Since these are procedurally-generated, I started working on a change to generate the image on-demand instead of reading a file. I plan to do that for the next release.
Okay; thanks for explanation!
