Bug #424249 seem to be a duplicate of this one aswell.

Exact same problem here. See attachment. Plz provide details on how to downgrade image magick.

This version was merged to lucid, so this should be fixed in lucid:

imagemagick | 7:6.5.5.3-1ubuntu1 | lucid | source, amd64, i386

[Alexis de Lattre (alexis-via)]

Great news !

Could we have the fix in Karmic also ?

If someone wants to prepare a patch and drive the SRU, it's
appropriate for an SRU.

[Alexis de Lattre (alexis-via)]

Here are the results of my morning tests :

1) on a standard Karmic box with imagemagick+perlmagick+libmagickcore2+libmagickwand2 in version 7:6.5.1.0-1.1ubuntu3 :
- it do get a segfault when I convert multiple JPG in PDF,
- I can't save PDFs in gscan2pdf, cf my bug #424249 which is currently marked as a duplicate of this one.

2) then, I upgrade this karmic box with the packages imagemagick+perlmagick+libmagickcore2+libmagickwand2 in version 7:6.5.5.3-1ubuntu1 as available in Lucid :
- I don't get the segfault when I convert multiple JPG in PDF any more, so the present bug is fixed,
- I still can't save PDFs in gscan2pdf, so the bug #424249 is still present !

So :
- I confirm that the current bug is fixed in Lucid,
- bug #424249 is NOT a duplicate of the current bug and is still present with the updated imagemagick packages of Lucid
- the workaround of bug #424249 is still to downgrade the perlmagick package to jaunty's version.

What's the procedure for upgrading the karmic imagemagick packages to the lucid ones? I assume you can download them from launchpad somewhere, but I can't see where.

[Alastair Carey (alastair-carey)]

Ok, I see it at http://packages.ubuntu.com/lt/lucid/amd64/imagemagick/download etc. I'm going to try applying those packages and seeing if it fixes my problem (segfault while converting multiple jpgs to pdf).

[Alastair Carey (alastair-carey)]

Confirmed, problem has gone!

[Jonathan Ernst (jonathan.ernst)]

It still segfaults when using "-compress jpeg" even with lucid's version here. Anyone can confirm this?

[Karol Pucyński (kpucynski)]

For me new (lucid version) package is not segfaulting at all (even with '-compres jpeg' mentioned above).

Still present in Karmic: #551484

Upgrading to Lucid's ImageMagick worked for me.
