Hi, I just committed the GraphicsMagick patchset to default branch. As result, transcode no longer depends on ImageMagick, but on GraphicsMagick (http://www.graphicsmagick.org) instead. As reminder, the basic rationale for this move was the need for a stabler (and saner? ) API/ABI. Unfortunately I got some networking annoyances that prevented me to push the changes on berlios' tcforge. I've taken the chance to rewrite heavily all the involved modules, including a deep refactoring of filters. The port also showed up a few libtcext glitches which I'm resolving as soon as they pop up[1]. Until the affected modules get a new round of testing, expect strange behaviours from them. The full list of affected modules follows. import/import_im import/import_imlist (already deprecated) encode/encode_im (should be reasonnably safe) filter/filter_logo (deeply rewritten) filter/filter_logoaway (ditto) filter/filter_compare (ditto) +++ [1] In the middle/long term, we should eventually find out a smarter linking strategy.
