Those transforms need profiles. And there is no single standard location for where color profiles belong, especially as they can be user specific. Something that reports back to a program like imagemagick what profiles are available, where they are located, and which one is set as a user specified default, is a reasonable dependency for a program like Imagemagick. Is it reasonable for me to complain about some program that has a libtiff dependency if I say it didn't depend on libtiff before, I don't use TIFF, therefore there should be no dependency now? Of course not. Chris Murphy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
