[Bug 1206620] remove GraphicsMagick in favour of ImageMagick
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1206620 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1206620#c17 --- Comment #17 from Petr Gajdos <pgajdos@suse.com> --- (In reply to Stefan Br�ns from comment #16)
ImageMagick has a significantly more heavy dependency chain than GraphicsMagick, and IIRC this will also reintroduce a build cycle.
Which build cycle, could you elaborate with your knowledge, please?
As it is used in quite some places as build dependency all these packages then will be in blocked state until ImageMagick has been rebuilt.
Perhaps yes, but I am not sure keeping GraphicsMagick for that reason only outweigh the issues described in comment 0. I do not see many packages requiring GraphicsMagick currently. That is why I am _considering_ GraphicsMagick removal now. At least gmic fake dependency was discovered now. But yes, I have to admit that I cannot be sure on the beginning we can get rid of GraphicsMagick completely, no matter how sensible it sounds. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
