Package: hugin-tools
Version: 0.6.1-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
The nona and nona_gui binaries are some of the largest on my system:
$ ls -l /usr/bin | sort -rn -k 5|head
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8689772 2006-08-28 22:33 hugin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7599308 2006-03-18 20:00 AbiWord-2.4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7175116 2006-08-28 22:33 nona_gui

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3085008 2006-01-30 21:09 gimp-2.2
I'm particularly sensitive to disk space as I'm running from a 4GB flash drive.
I suspect that the nona and nona_gui binaries are > 90% identical. Would it be
possible to eliminate one of them, and thereby save nearly 7MB? Possible
methods:
- Two links to the same executable which checks argv[0].
- An executable for nona and a script for nona_gui which calls nona with a
"gui" flag.
- Two small executables and a shared library.
I appreciate that not everyone shares my desire to optimise disk space and will
understand if you choose to ignore this report.
Thanks, Phil.

Hello,
The latter seems to be the chosen path in 0.7.0~svn3191-1.
(SID)[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/$ for i in /usr/bin/nona* ; do ldd $i | grep hug ;
ls -hl $i ; done

libhuginvigraimpex.so.0.0 => /usr/lib/libhuginvigraimpex.so.0.0
(0xf74c8000)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 35K Jul 16 20:47 /usr/bin/nona
libhuginbase.so.0.0 => /usr/lib/libhuginbase.so.0.0 (0xf791d000)

The packages have gotten smaller:

Package: hugin-data

That is basically down from 8 to 4 MB in the gzipped debian package.
Closing.
