Well, I don't question the good intention of the question nor would I insist on packaging it - I just needed such a tool and didn't find a suitable one right away this week - the convenient tool name would have been png2ico, so I just searched for that in debian and didn't get a match, so I tried google and found that one and it works just fine. That's why I filed an ITP - I just didn't know there's another tool available already :-) OTOH this utility is just limited to doing what I wanted to do - convert a couple of standard size icons into one single ico for a CD. Works like: png2ico icon-16.png icon-22.png icon-32.png icon-48.png icon-64.png myicon.ico How's icotool handling that ? Can it convert multiple iconsizes into one ico resource or is it limited to one single png file converted into ico format ?
