Thanks for the info Cor.

I guess it's in your hands to add new dependencies for converters that
will serve as a workarounds for eps conversion - our only way left AFAICS.

Pavel

The workaround is to install ImageMagick-config-7-upstream and to remove
Imagemagick-config-7-SUSE.

If you move to GM, does this mean that IM will stop working?

No. But I don't think we are moving to GM because it apparatnetly won't solve
the problem once for all.

What I meant by workaround was to add e.g. pdftoppm (on debian part of 
poppler-utils)
to runtime dependencies of lyx package. In 2.4 we detect if IM is under ban - 
in that
case we try to add pdftoppm to converters so insetad of IM's eps->png we use
eps->pdf->png with help of pdftoppm (see bd0510b08). We need to look on PNG -> 
EPS
path yet.

No fiddling with packages on the side of user is necessary then.

Pavel

I understand. Thanks. I assume that information will be in the release notes, I will find it when I'll do the update to 2.4 and make sure to include the right dependencies.
