With the "uninstalled" mode, everything is relative to where the 
program executable (or shared library) is.

Having a type-linux.mgk would be difficult since there is no standard 
set of fonts under Linux.  There are some popular font packages 
available on many distributions and you could request that the user 
install that package (maybe via a dependency rule followed by the 
operating system package manager) and then provide a mapping file for 
it.

All of the documentation comes with the software in the 'www' 
subdirectory.  There is a huge hunk of documentation at 
"http://www.graphicsmagick.org/GraphicsMagick.html" (which you can 
find at "www/GraphicsMagick.html".  I do see some mention of type.mgk.
