Can you make available a port of libPVRTC for Linux on Power PC 32-bit?&nbsp; I particularly need to be able to decode PVRTC in 8888.  
Or, can you supply source code for decoding PVRTC4 ?  
  
Thank you,

Hi webcoyote,  
  
I’m afraid libPVRTC is deprecated and we are no longer supporting it. We now support PVRTC compression through PVRTexLib only which I’m afraid we have no current plans to port to any other platforms.  
  
However - the good news: We distribute source code for decoding PVRTC in our SDK, in a file called “PVRTTextureDecompress.cpp”. If you download our SDK you’ll find this code in the “Tools” folder.  
  
Thanks,  
Tobias
