https://github.com/kornelski/pngquant/blob/3.0.3/CHANGELOG
Since 3.0.0, pngquant uses libimagequant 4.x, which is a Rust rewrite,
and and switches the build system from make to Cargo. The `pngquant`
executable is now a Rust wrapper around `pngquant.c`, which in turn
interfaces with libimagequant via the `imagequant_sys` crate, which
exports a C API.[1] The CLI seems unchanged.
Upstream lacks a Cargo.lock[2], so I generated one and patched it in.
Set `doCheck = false;` as there are no Rust-based tests. `test/` was
previously part of the make-based workflow (which is gone with pngquant
3.x) and looks like it isn't meant for pngquant 3.x anyway (as `test.sh`
executes `$BIN --version 2>&1 | fgrep 2.`).
`$ nix build .#pkgsCross.raspberryPi.pngquant` succeeds[3]; remove the
workaround originally introduced in [4].
Notes on dependencies:
- While nixpkgs package libimagequant on its own, pngquant depends on a
specific vendored version
- pngquant 3.x depends on the libpng-sys and lcms2-sys crates, which
provide bindings to the respective C libraries. If those are not
provided by the system at build time, vendored versions of them will
be built and statically linked; libpng 1.6.37 and LCMS 2.15,
respectively
