This works now for ffmpeg -i 11.png -f image2 out.gif
There are two gif encoders, only one supports pal8 output, the other only supports RGB24 which by definition does not support transparency.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.



I sent a patch to ffmpeg-devel that allows to use
ffmpeg -i 11.png -vcodec gif -f image2 out.gif
rgb24 by definition does not support transparency.
