yeap -- "unprecedentedly" tiny size (if we exclude personal distastes of an
ftpmaster):

$> dpigs -S -n 50000 | nl | grep -4 -e svgtune -e 'haskell-yesod-default'

  6450  1 bogofilter

as you can see -- it is not even a winner with more than 200 of smaller source
packages and nearly 10% (reported by dpigs) of archive containing smaller
binary packages.

once again -- for anyone interested to use this tiny but useful tool, you
are welcome to install it through the NeuroDebian repository:

http://neuro.debian.net/pkgs/svgtune.html

My next attempt to upload it would be some time when I run into/fix a bug in it
-- may be added bites would make it bigger/mightier, or someone might pick it
up for packaging into a collection with other svg-related tools.

Cheers,
