** Description changed: 1. The current version of imagemagick in Ubuntu since at least 15.04 (!) no longer supports jasper for JPEG2000 support but support openjpeg2 instead. See bug 1447968 . In other words, the current dependency on jasper does nothing. 2. jasper will be removed from Debian really soon because it has been abandoned upstream for a while. https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/jasper-rm.html 3. From what I can tell, imagemagick is the last thing keeping jasper in Ubuntu main. openjpeg2 is not in main yet, see bug 711061 . Interestingly, jasper apparently was never explicitly reviewed for inclusion in main and probably would not have been allowed in main had a review happened any time recently. I'm attaching a debdiff for sponsoring to remove the useless jasper dependency. Thanks! + For removing jasper from Ubuntu completely, see bug 1612835 . + ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 Package: imagemagick 8:6.8.9.9-7ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-33.52-generic 4.4.15 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-33-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs zunicode zcommon znvpair zavl ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Fri Aug 12 17:14:49 2016 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-04-09 (124 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Beta amd64 (20160408) SourcePackage: imagemagick UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
