I'd like to have the option of not using amanith for myself at least :)
Anyway, that's purely speculative for now, as amanith is not DFSG-free yet,
unless the users install it on their own.

Yup I guess... anyway there's something inside me that keeps telling me that
it would be better to do the best, not the easier. This is Debian, it's not
just a matter of having it done, but having it done in the best way we can.
I'd rather prefer to have the if (amanith) svg else png code instead, I guess.
Am I too perfectionist?
