ImageMagick permits rendering text onto an image with X11 fonts.  If you
build without X11 support, X11 fonts will not be supported (however we suspect
very few people us X11 fonts).

Any chance that this could be made a seperate configure option, you see in Fedora we would like to have the display and other X11 using applications, and at the same time not have the ImageMagick libraries and console utilities depend upon X11 libraries.

Hans,

It would be nice if we did not loose any functionality, such as X11 font
rendering, so having both versions of the tools that are able to draw
x11 fonts and ones that don't drag in X11 dependencies would be desired.


I was more planning on discussing on the fedora-devel list to drop the X11 font usage capability. Esp. in the light of Fedora moving to not shipping much X11 fonts by default anyways.

I'm not planning on doing all kind of tricks to build 2 different versions, then people will just have to live with the X11 libs dependencies, afterall those libs aren't _that_ big.

Regards,

Hans
