Here's what I did:

I converted Canon_40D.jpg in the repo to Canon_40D.png: using the Preview app in Mac
Scrub the file using:npx exif-be-gone Canon_40D.png Canon_40D.cleaned.png
Compare the results:diff -y <(exiftool Canon_40D.png ) <(exiftool Canon_40D.cleaned.png)

The two results are almost the same. Particularly, the cleaned version still has all the camera-related metadata.

I expect the cleaned PNG would have the same metadata set as the cleaned JPG.

Hey, for some reason I didn't notice this issue until right now. Sorry about that.

I'm going to merge this and deploy a new minor version. Thanks for filing this issue

I'm going to go ahead and close this, but please re-open if there is something more.
