Package: pngcrush Version: 1.6.7-1 Severity: normal
Hi, It seems that pngcrush sets the timestamps on the file that it creates to be the same as the input file. I've confirmed this by looking at the output of strace. There is no rationale for this behaviour in the documentation nor any way to disable it, as far as I can see. This caught me because neither Subversion nor my backup system noticed that the files had changed. I believe that the behaviour should be made consistent with just about every other command-line program, i.e. the operating system should be allowed to set appropriate timestamps.
