GraphicsMagick 1.0.3 is now available. GraphicsMagick 1.0.3 is a
bug-fix release in the 1.0 release cycle and is 100% API and ABI
compatible with GraphicsMagick 1.0. GraphicsMagick 1.0.3 does not
include any features which are not in GraphicsMagick 1.0. New
features and additional bug-fixes (but possibly new bugs) are
available via the 1.1 development snapshots.
Please see "http://www.graphicsmagick.org/www/download.html" for how
to retrieve this release. Downloading via the SourceForge link is
preferred since SourceForge offers many mirror sites and lots of
bandwidth.
Bugs fixed since the 1.0.2 release:
* Configure script fix to ensure that -lfpx is not supplied to C
compiler during subsequent tests since this fails on some systems.
* BMP reader fix to avoid unnecessary rejection of some old
uncompressed Windows 2.X and OS/2 BMPs.
* Semaphore fix which is necessary for proper multi-threaded operation.
* EXIF attributes were failing to be retrieved.
* Image magick string is that of the user-specified input file rather
than (possibly) a temporary file.
* BLOB file header tests are only performed if the user has not
specified the BLOB format (magick).
* Fixed a problem with reading images via a user provided file
descriptor. The coder was sometimes being passed a file descriptor
with a non-zero seek position. Note that reading from non-seekable
file streams may still be unreliable since the header magic tests
must read part of the input data and the seek position must be rewound.
* A locking problem was fixed in the logging code.
* JNG support can now be removed while continuing to support PNG and
MNG. This is neccessary if libjpeg is not available.
* VisualMagick configure is updated to eliminate a build dependency
problem and to enable fast static builds.
Please report any bugs via the graphicsmagick-bugs mailing list, or
via the bug tracking system at SourceForge.
Thanks,
Bob
