Description Zdenek Kabelac 2010-08-20 09:44:19 UTC
Description of problem:

libjpeg-turbo seems to come with different (older) version of jpegtran utility for lossless jpeg conversion.

It's missing support for these operations:

 
  -crop WxH+X+Y  Crop to a rectangular subarea
  -perfect       Fail if there is non-transformable edge blocks
  -scale M/N     Scale output image by fraction M/N, eg, 1/8

Support for lossless crop operation is quite important for digi cams.

I assume arithmetic coding could have some patent issues?? - thus maybe this option probably will not get to Fedora:
  -arithmetic    Use arithmetic coding

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libjpeg-turbo-utils-1.0.0-3.fc15.x86_64


Steps to Reproduce:
1. jpegtran -h

The latest libjpeg-turbo (libjpeg-turbo-utils-1.1.0-2.fc15) supports all options written above. Closing.
