I cannot reproduce this in latest xorg from unstable:

Please confirm. This should be closed otherwise.

Thanks ,

Bug#367485: imagemagic: display doesn't work, reports missing fonts

[Bruno Boettcher]

Package: imagemagic
Severity: normal

when trying to display an image i only get those error messages:

display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
display: unable to load font
`-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.

i installed it through aptitude, there were no other fonts packages

This doesn't seem to be a problem with imagemagick[0], but with the
changed font paths between xorg 6.9 and 7.0. Please see
http://bugs.debian.org/363371 for more information and possible
solutions.

Regards,

Daniel.

where affected users might look first.
