In the light of Alexander Schmehl's message in this thread on
debian-qa in March 2005 you may want to adopt pngcrush as a first step.

In case you wish to do so I would be grateful if you built pngcrush
which uses dynamic libraries as building it with static libraries
leads to objections from the security team. A small diff that allows
pngcrush-1.6.2-nolib to compile with dynamic libpng and zlib is
at
        http://www.imsc.res.in/~kapil/debian/pngcrush/pngcrush_1.6.2-0.1.diff.gz

I will be happy to co-maintain any/all these packages with you if
that is what you wish.

Thanks and regards,

Kapil.
