can't convert svg to bitmap using php5-imagick

[David White]

On 12.10 this works but not on any 14.04 server I've tried it on

   $im = new Imagick();
   $im->setbackgroundcolor("#00000000");
   $im->readimage($filename);
   $im->writeImage($pngname);

It fails with a message similar to:

unable to open file `/tmp/magick-IBUOBAQ4': No such file or directory @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/583
