Thanks for the reply Roland0, the GraphicsMagick webpage make it seem
like GhostScript is an optional component but I don't think it really
is, at least I couldn't figure out how to compile it so the gm
executable wouldn't moan about it being missing. Below is one of my
many configure runs, see how there's no default option for Ghostscript?
I happened to have the GhostScript extension loaded for this run which
is why it picked up the version info I guess. I tried to compile
without GS loaded and also with a couple of different configure options,
like --with-GhostScript=no and it would just say unknown option:
Code:
--------------------
Option Configure option Configured value
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Shared libraries --enable-shared=no no
Static libraries --enable-static=yes yes
GNU ld --with-gnu-ld=yes yes
Quantum depth --with-quantum-depth=16 16
Modules --with-modules=no no
Delegate Configuration:
BZLIB --with-bzlib=no no
DPS --with-dps=no no
FlashPIX --with-fpx=no no
FreeType 2.0 --with-ttf=yes yes
Ghostscript None gs (9.22)
Ghostscript fonts --with-gs-font-dir=default

JBIG --with-jbig=no no
JPEG v1 --with-jpeg=yes yes
JPEG-2000 --with-jp2=no no
LCMS v2 --with-lcms2=no no
LZMA --with-lzma=no no
Magick++ --with-magick-plus-plus=no no
PERL --with-perl=no no

Windows fonts --with-windows-font-dir= none
WMF --with-wmf=no no
X11 --with-x= no
XML --with-xml=no no
ZLIB --with-zlib=no yes

For reference, here's all the junk that gets pulled in with the
GraphicsMagick.tcz from the official repo:

I compiled 'netpbm' (http://netpbm.sourceforge.net) and have been
testing with that over the last several days. It's mostly working. I
figured I could just pick out the few tools I needed from it which would
keep the footprint down. It's just a bit slow at the moment, like 4.5
seconds to wget, copy, blur, resize and composite into a single
semi-transparent full screen image.
I keep going down rabbit holes of different tools and losing days just
jacking around with transparency and resizing. I think my wife's about
to strangle me.
