GraphicsMagick 1.1.2 is now released.  Instructions for retrieving it 
may be obtained at http://www.graphicsmagick.org/.  GraphicsMagick 
1.1.2 is primarily a bug-fix release, although some performance 
improvements are included.

The following are the significant changes since the 1.1.1 release:

   Bugs fixed:
     * The source RPM package was not installing the *-config scripts with
     execute permissions.
     * Under Windows, the Ghostscript fonts were not being found for
     Ghostscript 8.X.X installs.
     * For the "moby" (shared, non-module) build, loading all modules was
     reporting an error while running the test suite due to not locating the
     LOGO module.  The "moby" build was not really able to load external
     modules at all.
     * Fixed building under the current MinGW development environment.
     * Fixed usage message for `mogrify' (was missing -operator).
     * Fixes for SetImageOpacity().

   Improvements:
     * Significant performance improvments (4X) in DispatchImage() and
     ConstituteImage() for byte-sized input/output and the patterns BGR,
     BGRO, BGRP, RGB, RGBO, and I.
     * The module loader now properly considers the module loading path in
     all cases.  This means that modules may be located in multiple directories
     and the user may supply his own modules in some other location.  Module
     loading now works as intended for the "moby" build even though the
     standard modules are included in the GraphicsMagick shared library or DLL.
     * Under Windows, initialization time should be somewhat improved while
     loading the type.mgk (font description) file.
