    A netpbm problem - where to report?

    Hello,

    I have noticed this netpbm problem: pnmquant doesn't work with stdin. However, I am not sure if I should report this in the Debian bug tracking system. Is netpbm 10.0-5 a Debian package? I can't see the version number there.

    Is the version of Perl is also important (pnmquant is Perl script)?

    -------------------------------------------------
    Here is the bug description
    This doesn't work and produces an error message and a zero length file.

    $ ppmmake red 400 300 | pnmquant 16 > tmp_quant.ppm
    pnmcolormap: making histogram...
    pnmcolormap: 1 colors found
    pnmcolormap: Image already has few enough colors (<=16). Keeping same
    colors.
    pnmremap: EOF / read error reading magic number
    pnmremap failed, rc=256


    And here is what works:

    ppmmake red 400 300 > tmp.ppm ; pnmquant 16 tmp.ppm > tmp_quant.ppm
    Bye,
    Gencho

    BTW, i have noticed that the version of netpbm isn't 10.0-5, but 2:10.0-5. It seems to be a known bug that dpkg -l doesn't display epoch numbers.
