-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-8002c5e462 2025-03-15 00:23:42.170467+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : gifsicle Product : Fedora 42 Version : 1.96 Release : 1.fc42 URL : http://www.lcdf.org/gifsicle/ Summary : Powerful program for manipulating GIF images and animations Description : Gifsicle is a command-line tool for creating, editing, and getting information about GIF images and animations. Some more gifsicle features: * Batch mode for changing GIFs in place. * Prints detailed information about GIFs, including comments. * Control over interlacing, comments, looping, transparency... * Creates well-behaved GIFs: removes redundant colors, only uses local color tables if it absolutely has to (local color tables waste space and can cause viewing artifacts), etc. * It can shrink colormaps and change images to use the Web-safe palette (or any colormap you choose). * It can optimize your animations! This stores only the changed portion of each frame, and can radically shrink your GIFs. You can also use transparency to make them even smaller. Gifsicle?s optimizer is pretty powerful, and usually reduces animations to within a couple bytes of the best commercial optimizers. * Unoptimizing animations, which makes them easier to edit. * A dumb-ass name. One other program is included with gifsicle and gifdiff compares two GIFs for identical visual appearance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to 1.96 --lossy measures color errors uses the currently selected color space (specified by --gamma, which defaults to sRGB). It also uses a different algorithm for computing color differences. As a result, the --lossy=N option behaves differently in version 1.96 than in previous versions. A given value of N may compress less than you expect. The closest analogue to previous versions will be obtained with --lossy=N --gamma=1. Improve handling of GIFs with images positioned far outside the logical screen. This can greatly reduce memory usage. Add preliminary support for the Oklab color space (--gamma=oklab). Add support for --dither=atkinson (daria@xxxxxxxxxxxx). Add support for --use-exact-colormap. Fix some bugs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Feb 27 2025 Orion Poplawski <orion@xxxxxxxx> - 1.96-1 - Update to 1.96 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
