GraphicsMagick 1.3.9 is now released.  This is a bug-fix release. 
Please download the release from 
"https://sourceforge.net/projects/graphicsmagick/files/" or visit the 
web site at "http://www.graphicsmagick.org/".

The following are the changes since the 1.3.8 release:

Security Fixes:

   * None

Bug fixes:

   * Fix "double free" error when using gm import -frame.

   * XPM does not support RGBA color syntax, so return RGB instead.

   * The display '-update' option was only working in conjunction with
     the '-delay' option with a delay setting of 2 or greater.

   * For formats which support multiple frames, output with +adjoing to
     filenames containing a scene specification (e.g. foo%02d.tiff) was
     resulting in wrong output file names.

   * -convolve was crashing rather than reporting an error.

   * Fixed crash if the number of OpenMP threads was reduced from the
     original value via '-limit threads' or omp_set_num_threads().

   * -blur was not blurring the opacity channel for solid-color images.

   * When installing HTML documentation, many files were included which
     are not part of the formatted documentation.

   * Several deleted global string constants are restored with
     deprecated status in order to assure that symbols are not removed
     from the ABI.

New Features:

   * None

Feature improvements:

   * None

Performance Improvements:

   * None

Behavior Changes:

   * There is no longer an implicit 'adjoin' if an output filename
     contains an apparent scene specification (e.g. foo%02d.tiff) and
     multiple files are not needed to save the image..  It is necessary
     to use +adjoin.  For example ``gm convert foo.pdf +adjoin
     %02d.tiff``.

   * -flatten now applies the image background color under the first
     image in the list if it is not already opaque.

Thanks,

Bob
