Not yeat included in Debian but from the same Author as the other apng* commands.
To check packaging:
tar -xf *-src.tar.bz2

The Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) file format is an
extension to the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) specification. It
allows for animated PNG files that work similarly to animated GIF
files, while retaining backward compatibility with non-animated PNG
files and adding support for 8-bit transparency and 24-bit images."

should be better to have a single PNG tool package instead of every
single command having its own package ?
Upstream author has a very peculiar style in this way

builds and packages fine. GTG
Jari,
I continue to think that upstream decision to make a package of every
single command is very poor choice.
I also notice that the manual is written by you and upstream
is not providing the elementary "--help" option.
NAME
apngopt - optimize animated PNG image files
SYNOPSIS

I don't see why that's Jari's fault. If they are released separately
upstream with different version numbers and different schedules, it is
only natural for them to be packaged separately.

This is an upstream issue. While this isn't Debian and their manpage
policy doesn't apply to us, documentation is generally a good thing.

It is surely not Jari's fault.
As he is the package volunteer, he is free to package as he prefers,
for that reasone I GTG's

Documentation is good.
My judgment is only about the inconsistency of upstream "packages".
In general I does not consider them packages at all, the packages are
all the Jari's job around them.

Thank you for your testing.

It depends how you look at it. I understand the decision:
- It can make maintenence easier (every utility has it's own
track record, security updates, VCS repo, etc.)
- People can install what they really need, individually.
Personally I wouldn't want to install collection "X", when all I would need
would be utility "A" from it; but I'd be forced to to also get B, C, d, E,
F, G ... with the "X".
I tend to prefer minimalism during install.

Good catch, I'll contact upstream and cook a patch in a mean while.

Options -h, --help, -V, --version now included (patch forwarded also
upstream). Use this:
wget --recursive --no-host-directories --cut-dirs=3 \
http://cante.net/~jaalto/tmp/cygwin/apngopt/apngopt-1.1-1-src.tar.bz2 \
http://cante.net/~jaalto/tmp/cygwin/apngopt/apngopt-1.1-1.tar.bz2 \
http://cante.net/~jaalto/tmp/cygwin/apngopt/setup.hint
cd apngopt/
tar -xf *-src.tar.bz2
./*.sh --color --verbose all
