Package: psiconv
Version: 0.9.8-4.1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
Recent versions of GraphicsMagick require the InitializeMagick API to be called:
1.3.8 (January 21, 2010)
========================
[…]
Behavior Changes:
* InitializeMagick() MUST be invoked prior to using any Magick API
function. Failure to do so will likely lead to an immediate
application crash. This is due to initialization and runtime
changes intended to improve thread safety and efficiency.
Previously it was only strongly recommended to invoke
InitializeMagick().
The attached patch fixes this issue for psiconv. Note that this patch
also works for building against ImageMagick (because InitializeMagick
is a long-standing API), and in any case it would only apply to old
versions, since psiconv's configure script detects GraphicsMagick as
API level 2, whereas the highest API level it detects is 4.
The only recent change is that calling InitializeMagick used to be
optional, whereas it is now mandatory.
