Hi Nelson,
first I have to thank you very much. These libraries were indeed the problem. 
I removed them and now the version of lenny is working as it should and 
reports the right version.

I use imagemagick since long time and I used since Debian 3.0 and 4.0 not only 
the stable version but sometimes also testing and unstable. 

It is clear that I must have installed the libraries in 2007 (according to the 
timestamp) in any way. I am almost sure that I did not installed imagemagick 
other than from a Debian distribution. The libraries were installed with my 
personal account and not under root. So it seems that they were not installed 
with any Debian package.

The version of etch used libmagick9 and this was not located 
in /usr/local/lib. So this explains why I got the problem just after 
switching to lenny.

I think that imagemagick should first look for the libraries in /usr/lib 
before searching in /usr/local/lib. This would prevent the usage of wrong 
local libraries.

Again thank you very much.

Regards,
Tino.

Here:
open("/usr/local/lib/libMagick.so.10", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/usr/local/lib/libWand.so.10", O_RDONLY) = 3

Do you remember if you have manually installed an older ImageMagick version?
From what I see, the "convert" command that you are calling is from
another install of ImageMagick (not the one from Debian).

Test with this:

/usr/bin/convert --version

"whereis convert" can help you in finding where is the other convert
binary (as we know that the libs are under /usr/local/lib)

Best regards,
Nelson
