Bug#444147: Generated images are *much* larger
$self ($some_minutes_ago):
> Here it comes.
Now I know why I was waiting a bit to send this mail, I was waiting for
the (dirty, since I added some debug info, but you'll get it right
easily) patch to sync between my boxen.
Cheers,

Following upstream's suggestions[1], using -Tpng:gs gives a rather satisfying result: Current (-Tpng, through cairo): $ find -name "*.png*" -print0 | xargs -0 du -hsc|tail -n 1 108Mtotal With the patch (-Tpng:gd, through gd): $ find -name "*.png*" -print0 | xargs -0 du -hsc|tail -n 1 13M total 1. https://mailman.research.att.com/pipermail/graphviz-interest/2007q3/004771.html > The severity may seem a bit inflated since there is no actual defect; > however, there is a need for a workaround or fix ASAP before this > seriously hits all mirrors.

They are -doc package, that's not like they're duplicated 11 times on mirrors, though. > I'm not sure what the proper solution -if any- would be and if this > bug would need to be reassigned to doxygen, but I'm filing this here > since the graphviz maintainer would know the situation better. I thought people would be glad to have better looking images. I guess you might want to either reduce the size of the images, or pick another output format. I didn't check, but maybe svg or ps/pdf might be better than png in some cases. > The severity may seem a bit inflated since there is no actual defect; > however, there is a need for a workaround or fix ASAP before this > seriously hits all mirrors. I'll check that with upstream. I guess it's possible to disable the pango rendering/antialiased output at some point. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois pgpWUtVqWrFL9.pgp Description: PGP signature
Bug#444147: Generated images are *much* larger
Package: graphviz Version: 2.12-4 Severity: grave It appears that the newest graphviz in unstable creates some much cleared images (antialiazed etc.) by the use of pango. Unfortunately, this means that the generated images are *much* larger. This may be not a very serious problem by itself but doxygen uses graphviz and many packages in Debian generate their -doc packages using doxygen. asterisk-doc images were 13MB and with the newer graphviz this figure gets to 112M (10 times more!). The package size gets from 28MB to 122MB. I can't imagine what would happen on bigger software suites. This will affect seriously all Debian mirrors! I'm not sure what the proper solution -if any- would be and if this bug would need to be reassigned to doxygen, but I'm filing this here since the graphviz maintainer would know the situation better. The severity may seem a bit inflated since there is no actual defect; however, there is a need for a workaround or fix ASAP before this seriously hits all mirrors.
