The ImageMagic `import` program doesn't take any short command-line options, and the execline `import` program doesn't take any long command-line options. Both packages could check for the existence of the exec-wrapper and either add it if it's missing or skip and continue if it exists. This requires cooperation between the two port maintainers. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
