To provide some insight into why I'm trying to use oiiotool, I'm a Fedora
packager (I also package OIIO for Fedora) and I've been using the
ImageMagick tool convert to create a 48x48 icon out of the SVG provided by
openshot upstream just in case someone is running a desktop that doesn't
support SVG.

It happily creates the file but a script that run during the packaging
process checks that all files packaged for the RPM don't contain the path
to the build root. This is mostly important for library rpath handling but
it's not intelligent enough to know the difference.

The convert tool is adding some metadata to the resultant PNG file and the
build is failing. I've added the -strip option to remove the metadata but
something weird in the convert tool happens only on SOME releases where
it's not removing it properly and the build still fails.

I resorted to brute force removing it with sed but it's causing some
programs to think the PNG file is corrupted... so now I'm looking for
alternatives to the convert program and thought I would try oiiotool.


Thanks,
Richard
