Introduction:
Users need this perl script in order to use the Create Photowall option
(provided by extension PictureTile 0.5.0.0 in F-Spot). The script itself is not
packaged anywhere in Fedora until now. When user click Create Photowall in
F-Spot, only the message "picturetile.pl not found" appears, which is not very
user-friendly.

Unfortunately, F-Spot has a problem with its extensions at the moment,
therefore live testing of the interaction with F-Spot is at the moment
impossible. I already filed a bug upstream, and add I will add a tracker bug
here in Bugzilla as well.

Since it is not required for F-Spot to have this package or vice versa, I
deliberately left out these dependencies.

This is my second package under review, but I have no sponsor up to now. My
first package is under review under bug 497525.


Description of the script:
Takes a bunch of images and tiles them into one large image.
Not so much a collage, as a "photo wall."

The images are selected randomly from the given directory, and packed
together as tightly as possible. Images that are very small are
assumed to be thumbnails and are ignored. No image will be used more
than once, and the images need not be of the same size or aspect ratio.

This script can be used stand-alone from the command-line, or from the
F-Spot plugin "create photowall" (PictureTile).
