I haven't used ImageMagick in a while and recently, I did a bunch of mucking around with my system (upgrade to KDE 3.5 where kaudiocreator started exhibiting weird behaviour, then downgrade to KDE 3.4.3 and in the course of this, I removed anything that had been installed in a new slot, but I suffered no repercussions afterwards). When I right-clicked on the graphic that I wanted to edit and chose "open with" and display, ImageMagick didn't launch, but the configuration screen for KRandRTray (the KDE screen resize and rotate utility). When I noticed this, I thought that maybe it was my mistake, so I unmerged ImageMagick. After doing this, I checked /usr/bin and no executable named "display" existed. When I emerged ImageMagick again, the display executable was back in /usr/bin and exhibited the same behaviour as explained above when I tried to launch ImageMagick to edit the graphic. This occurrence was on my desktop. Over the past couple of days, I have been updating my laptop. Since I didn't want any slotted occurrences of packages, I removed all packages that would have resulted in new slots being created - xorg-x11, kde-meta, etc. Then I emerged them again. Everything seems fine. However, as I was keeping tabs on the progress of the 272 package install of kde-meta, I noticed a couple of lines during different compiles that said something to the effect "seems to have been relocated". So, I'm wondering has anyone noticed the behaviour described above with ImageMagick and could there have been a problem with the header used to compile the program. (Don't laugh, I'm not a programmer, but am taking a stab! :-) ) Regards, Colleen -- Registered Linux User #411143 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
