Thanks Paul,

I have removed `png` from `image/vnd.mozilla.apng` and will remove
`image/pcx` entirely as `image/vnd.zbrush.pcx` is preferred now.

I ran /usr/share/lighttpd/create-mime.conf.pl and only had duplicate
warnings, that do not cause errors (the scripts returns 0).  With the
latest /etc/mime-types file in Sid, I do not have parser errors.

In the latest CI log of lighttpd on amd64, there is:

    defconfig            FAIL stderr: Duplicate mimetype: '.sdf' => 'application/vnd.stardivision.math' (already have 'application/vnd.Kinar'), merging to 'application/octet-stream'

Unfortunately, `sdf` is a legitimate extension for both media types.  I
see that /usr/share/lighttpd/create-mime.conf.pl already has a section
for resolving such conflicts, so I think that the best solution is
to implement a choice in this script.

If this is too close to the freeze, I can temporarly remove `sdf` for
`application/vnd.stardivision.math` and re-add it later.

Have a nice day,

Charles
