It's in Debian testing since a while. Don't know about Ubuntu. I was just assuming that since he has 0.5-1 the update would be available to him as well. > > Is there a reason we can't use 0.4, btw? That's what's in both debian > and ubuntu stable... The client uses an option that is not available in 0.4. The client could be modified to work without that, but nobody has done it, yet. One of the next items on my TODO is actually to try to use PerlMagick for quantizing. This would do away with the requirement for pngnq completely and also save the start of around 2000 sub-processes per tileset. If PerlMagick does a good job of compressing PNG files we can save the 2000 calls to pngcrush as well.
