>Number: 2096 >Category: ports >Synopsis: ImageMagick outdated, lzw not supported >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sun Nov 24 19:40:04 PST 1996 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Mikhail Teterin >Organization: >Release: FreeBSD 2.2-960801-SNAP i386 >Environment: >Description: a) ImageMagic-3.7.8 released today (Nov 24) b) The version which supports lzw-compression of GIF and other images is stored usually in subdirectory lzw of the official URL. I'd suggest, use of ``lzw'' be made optional (or standard with non-lzw being otional) in the same manner netscape3 port has an option for netscape-gold installation. c) list of ftp-sites, where the new version is available is big. This seem to be the official mirrors: ftp://ftp.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick ftp://ftp.cci.fr/pub/unix/gfx/ImageMagick ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/pub/graphics/ImageMagick ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/graphics/image/ImageMagick d) I hope, that list of plug-ins, FreeBSD's port support will expand in near future to i) use new tiff-3.4 ii) use recently submitted jbig and hdf ports >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Besides adding hdf and jbig to the list of libraries needed (when they are commited to the ports/graphics), I'd suggest smth like this: MASTER_SITES= ftp://ftp.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick \ ftp://ftp.cci.fr/pub/unix/gfx/ImageMagick \ ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/pub/graphics/ImageMagick \ ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/graphics/image/ImageMagick .if defined(NOLZW) MD5_FILE= ${FILESDIR}/md5.nolzw DIST_SUBDIR= nolzw .else RESTRICTED= "Unisys claims that they have the right to demand licenses and/or fees from free software incorporating the LZW algorithms, even though they are currently not doing this." MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR=lzw .endif pre-fetch: .if !defined(NOLZW) @${ECHO_MSG} "Note you can make the \"lzw-free\" version by typing \"make NOLZW=yes\"." .else @${ECHO_MSG} "Making the \"lzw-free\" version." .endif >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
