Package: gscan2pdf
Version: 0.9.29-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

gscan2pdf hangs when saving files. The progress bar just sits at "Saving
page 1 of 1" and does not advance.

When I downgraded package perlmagick from 7:6.5.1.0-1.1 to
7:6.3.7.9.dfsg2-1+b1 (which also required installing libmagick10), the
save functionality returned and the problem was fixed.

I also tested with the git version of gscan2pdf (master at b86811) and
it also has the same problem. The line that hangs is:
  my $x = $image->Read($filename);
in create_PDF.

The version of perlmagick below in the dependencies is the version I
downgraded to in order to make gscan2pdf work again.
