ok - i'm just checking with phil, who basically is telling me 'stop being an ass and tell the nice guy that it's a bug, not a policy violation. and don't be stupid about it'. we're trying to check what's happening... ok, sorry about that - there's nothing specific. > ATM I can not follow > your reasoning. > curator works just fine with both, the python-imaging stuff and imagemagick. not with python-imaging version 1.1.5-11 it doesn't. yes - that's the point: i had to install _both_ python-imaging _and_ imagemagick. ok - i think i found it. python-imaging version 1.1.5-11 /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-imaging.list contains /usr/bin/pilconvert.py imagemagick's .list file contains the program '/usr/bin/convert'. remember - python-imaging is the _actual_ package - it includes code for both python2.3 _and_ 2.4. i've noticed this sort of thing happening quite a bit - suddenly the python-xxxxxxx package isn't a dummy package any more, it actually Does Stuff. anyway. the program you are looking for, when python-imaging is installed, is not called /usr/bin/convert - it's called /usr/bin/pilconvert.py. l. > Regards, > Sven > -- > If you won't forgive me the rest of my life > Let me apologize while I'm still alive > I know it's time to face all of my past mistakes > [Less than Jake - Rest Of My Life] -- -- lkcl.net - mad free software computer person, visionary and poet. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
