One possible explanation is that you have more than one version of convert-ly on your system, perhaps from having installed the software using different methods. If the older one is in a path that gets searched before the new binary's location, then your shell will find and run the old one.
$ find / -name convert-ly should confirm or refute that theory. If it's not that, another possibility is that perhaps your package management tools or procedures have led you astray somehow. Download a new package, and check its contents before you re-install it. Afterward see whether the convert-ly binary that got installed is the same as the one inside the package archive.
