Fedora 29 FEDORA-2019-55973f4ef8 Moderate: jbig2dec Image Decoder Update

fedora
Calendar Grey September 15, 2019
Dist Fedora Esm H88
A new Fedora patch for jbig2dec fixes existing issues and enhances capabilities for more efficient handling of image compression.
rebase to 0.16 (bz #1741605)

Summary

jbig2dec is a decoder implementation of the JBIG2 image compression format.

JBIG2 is designed for lossy or lossless encoding of 'bilevel' (1-bit

monochrome) images at moderately high resolution, and in particular scanned

paper documents. In this domain it is very efficient, offering compression

ratios on the order of 100:1.
