The Debian/Ubuntu world has a compatibility package that provides Graphics Magick versions of the
ImageMagick tools  My use cases are very basic so I hope the differences with GraphicsMagick won't
cause problems.  

Fedora requires some effort to avoid editing legacy scripts and makefiles (that are shared with other users
so need to work across multiple platforms).  I  created a /usr/local/gm/bin directory with a bunch of links to
"all.sh": that has "exec /usr/bin/gm ...".  and use environment modules to add the new gm/bin directory to the
path when needed.
