Remove dependency on Netpbm tools. They were used as a quick and dirty solution for reading PNGs. It's easier and more versatile to use GD library to read and write PNGs from RAGE1's perl tools.

Moreover, Ubuntu ships an ancient version of Netpbm (before 2008!) which has revealed some installation problems.

Tasks:

  • Replace calling Netpbm tools in perl code with calls to GD::Image
  • Update REQUIREMENTS.md
  • Add specific package names and/or complete install command lines for several common distros, testing them with containers.
