[gcompris-devel] gcompris size

[Bruno Coudoin]

I wanted to release a new version of gcompris but the size increase is
terrible.

23171375 sep 19 15:26 gcompris-1.2.0.tar.gz
17211227 sep 19 15:26 gcompris-core-1.2.0.tar.gz
16894421 sep 19 15:45 gcompris-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm

16M for the rpm, where previous size was 9.6M !!!

My first investigation I found out that advanced_colors takes 3.1 MB
where it could be stripped out of a couple of meg by using jpeg instead
of png. Pascal, is this possible to use jpeg in this board.

What I found is that jpeg does not support transparency and that is many
case this is needed.

Bruno.
