Bug Description

This code in configure.ac tries to substitute 'convert' for 'tiff2ps' if tiff2ps isn't found:

AC_PATH_PROG(TIFF2PS, tiff2ps, false)
if test "$TIFF2PS" = false; then
    if test "$CONVERT" != false; then
        AC_MSG_WARN(cannot find tiff2ps; will substitute convert)
        TIFF2PS="$CONVERT"
        TIFF2PS_FLAGS=""
    else
        AC_MSG_WARN(cannot find tiff2ps; will not be able to build PostScript documentation)
        can_build_doc=no
        missing_for_doc="$missing_for_doc tiff2ps"
    fi
fi

..but then this fails calling `convert -3` which isn't a valid convert command.

Other than that, once I have all the right dependencies installed, I can now successfully build html, dvi, ps and pdf docs - It's a long time since this worked on fedora!

Should be fixed in rev 0c051e944b27.

We no longer use tiff2ps(1) at all. The job gets done by convert(1).
Thus, there is no TIFF2PS_FLAGS anymore.
