Thomas,
I assume you are giving feed back on RPM for DX0-4.0.10 Release 2 for RH
6.1, uploaded yesterday.
The ImageMagick issue is not a bug really. That is the way it coded. I
suggested a while ago
the gif code can be reactivated by using OpenSource libGD.
I would be more interested in kowing any crashes, coredumps or unsual VPE
behavior because the binaries
were compiled using huge patch from RedHat plus a few additions from me.
