Re: Doc build failure: pngtopnm: Error writing single byte sample to file

[Graham Percival]

I'm suspicious about renaming pngtopnm_.  Just leave /opt/ alone, and
make the pngtopnm and pnmtopng scripts as directed.  As long as the
location of those two scripts comes before /opt/local/bin in your
path, you'll be fine.

Cheers,
- Graham
