At some time in the past few months I was planning to upgrade ImageMagick, but the then-current release failed one of my tests. Specifically, display /path/to/first-file.jpg /path/to/second-file.jpg
In a good version, this displays the first file, and then lets me click on 'next' in the menu (right mouse for menu) and go to to the next file. It also lets me go to the previous entry, or resize. On the more-recent version I was testing, 'next' stuck at the first image. I was lacking time, so I didn't follow it up, or go to the version that was in the book, and I stuck with 6.7.8-6 which had previously passed my limited tests (display multiple files, mogrify jpegs to a different size). For my current build, after realizing that the .la module files were needed, I decided to update to the version in BLFS, and downloaded it from anduin. And found the same breakage. So, ImageMagick has been broken for some time (sad, but not surprising - the last time I had a problem with 'display' it eventually got fixed, but some time after the first report on their forum). But I'm surprised nobody else hads noticed this. Are you all using something else ? I can't believe I'm the only one using display to review a series of images (photos) when I'm selecting them for processing and upload. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
