thanks
ccing the imagemagick developers because the proper way to fix this
issue would probablly be to change the imagemagick packaging.

I've managed to reproduce it but it requires a fairly specific
combination of circumstances.
Build-Depends: cdbs, debhelper (>= 7), ant, imagemagick, default-jdk,
libmagickcore-extra
imagemagick is a package containing executables that rely on
libmagickcore? (where ? is the soversion the imagemagick libraries)
libmagickcore-extra is a virtual package provided by libmagick?-extra.
libmagick?-extra provides support for extra formats to libmagickcore?
The problem is there is nothing to enforce that the imagemagick and
libmagick-extra build-dependencies are satisfied by the same soversion
of the imagemagick libraries. In the case of the failing build they were
indeed satisfied by different versions (imagemagick was based on
libmagickcore4 but the libmagickcore-extra dependency was satisfied by
libmagickcore3-extra).
Without libmagickcore4-extra imagemagick couldn't use internal svg
support so it tried to use the rsvg binary instead. This also failed
because the package containing that binary (librsvg-bin) was not installed.
I'm downgrading the bug to important as it's not an issue for builds on
a clean and current sid environment but IMO this is still a deficiency
that should be dealt with. IMO the best option would be to introduce an
"imagemagick-extra" package that had both a dependency on the
appropriate libmagick?-extra package and a tightly versioned dependency
on the imagemagick package.
