* Some really smart person to grep the system
properly
looking for corrupt image files (png, xcf, jpg/jpeg,
whatever else might be out there). We can't inspect those
images for branding issues. For whatever reason, seems many
of the images got corrupted with CR/LF issues. We have found
most of the corrupt files (walch.martin found most of them
--- I only pushed clean files), but I don't know of a good
way to search the sources for corrupt image files.
(Note: Corrupt image files do not block building packages,
but they cause usability issues that reflect badly on us).
Regarding corrupt images, I believe we have that problem now behind us. Using a
combination of find/xargs/identify I think I spotted any remaining suspects. There are
thousands of image files in our repository, but I believe all now are viewable. Of course,
the only sure-fire way to know would be to manually view each image file. :-)
That does not mean there are no branding issues with some images. Just yesterday I
stumbled across one such image for ksysguard. There remains the mystery of the image in
the fifteenpieces About dialog. Therefore images needing branding attention still exist.
Thank you everybody who have been helping with updating the images. I marvel at how
quickly you folks update these images. :-)
