(235K) media-gfx/pngcrush/files/pngcrush-1.6.7-modified_debian_patchset_1.patch

I'm reporting this bug since repoman issued a warning about a file bigger than 20KiB.

Big files should be moved to mirrors, or otherwise stored outside the main cvs tree, since the cvs/rsync tree is downloaded by all users, whether they'll use your package or not.

Thank you,
Diego

I'll remove the file soon as bug 249026 is solved, it's about stabilization of new pngcrush which doesn't use the patch.
