Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gscan2pdf

The cuneiform version in ubuntu has no libmagick++-support (Bug
#654767). Therefore it can only process uncompressed BMP v3 images.

Trying anything else leads to OCR being cancelled. On the console this is 
printed:
> /tmp/lD1hIbHasU/ThgzjU3Pqw.pnm is not a BMP file.
> *** unhandled exception in callback:
> ***   Error: cannot open /tmp/lD1hIbHasU/DWr2n3tweG.txt
> ***  ignoring at /usr/bin/gscan2pdf line 12513.

As a workaround gscan2pdf should convert the images before passing them
over to cuneiform.
