Description Jeremy Kitchen 2004-08-04 12:37:41 UTC
Please find the attached icoconvert-2.0.ebuild

icoconvert is a package that allows you to turn windows .ico files into png images.  It works better for this purpose than imagemagick and netpbm (we were trying it out in #gentoo on EFNet earlier) and is small, easy to use, and fast.

I will also be submitting an ebuild for icoconvert-1.x later, for legacy purposes, however, we weren't able to get version 1.x to convert the .ico file we had properly.

It requires GD library version 2.0 or more, as stated in the ebuild, and has no manpage, but there is a README file.

In my overlay it resides in media-gfx/icoconvert.  I figured this is a good place to put it since it has a similar function as imagemagick and that's where imagemagick is :)

This is my first submitted ebuild, so let me know if I did anything wrong.  I followed liquidx's ebuild problems guide and tried to make it as neat and clean as possible :)

Please have a look at icoutils instead, they provide this functionality and more.
Additionally, upstream only seems to have the 1.1 tarball available at the URL in the ebuild you submitted.
