Re: Package owner required for ImageMagick
Hi, I remember a few years ago an imageMagick upgrade , we made one compat-ImageMagick693 [1] and after a few days the packages was not needed anymore . I propose do the same , do one compat-ImageMagick6.9.12 and after upgrade ImageMagick to 7 ...

As someone who endorsed this suggestion before, I should probably make sure this contrary view is seen: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56220630/479426 In short, in the 20 years since the fork, ImageMagick has grown a lot of fancy new features, and may in fact be better behaved in some security-related cases. However, I am still in favor of replacing ImageMagick with GraphicsMagick, because: 1. If your use case is advanced image processing for, for example, computer vision, there are _so many other better library-based approaches_, and 2. If security is your concern, _oh god please don't do that it's too late already_. -- Matthew Miller Fedora Project Leader ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
Re: Package owner required for ImageMagick
Sounds as if we need to keep ImageMagick 6.x for legacy reasons as long as it's safe to do so, but instead of switching to 7.x at some point, switching to GraphicsMagick is at most as much work if not less, but more future-proof?

One of the first things that you'll probably want to look at is upgrading it to ImageMagick 7.x. ImageMagick 6.x is not maintained upstream as far as I can tell. Yes, and the maintainer prior to me had tried to push a 7.x update and then promptly abandoned the package after a mess was made. ImageMagick 7.x has a different API and requires porting apps. Apps are not interested in 7.x and will use 6.x until they're forced to change. @Luya, apologies for not providing you with a little more knowledge of the package.

I find myself using it in various scenarios. Not that I want to dissuade you, but note that for many such scenarios, GraphicsMagick is a drop-in replacement. Or close to drop-in.
