Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libmagick9

Regarding one of our web servers, a co-worker of mine filed an internal
bug with this text:

> ImageMagick fonts don't get properly configured -- this seems like it

Our needing to edit a configuration file which is stored
in /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.4/config makes me nervous. It's going to get
overwritten on upgrades, since it's not a conffile, right?
