Hello, please remove package pmt (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22689) which I maintain.
There are several reasons for it: 1) I don't want to maintain it anymore 2)A little background is needed here. pmt used to be a part of [extra] but because of lack of interest it was moved to AUR where I adopted it. It contains several png handling tools (pngcrush, png2bmp, bmp2png, pngmeta) but only one is really maintained – it's pngcrush. As time gone by it was more and more difficult to keep all tools working with new libraries in Arch. Then I found out someone packaged pngcrush itself (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22877) and now it has much more votes than pmt ever had. png2bmp/bmp2png can be easily replaced with imagemagick convert. I'm not sure about pngmeta, but it didn't have a release since 2001 so I guess this one would be a big loss either.
Thanks, Lukas
Hello, I think this package should not be removed. I adopted it an uploaded a version without pngcrush. Regards Stefan
