I'm going through the Fedora sources now. Many of the patches are already in TDE, but the 'Magick patches are not. I'm trying to merge those now.

For Slackware, I am unable to build GraphicsMagick 1.1.15. I have not tried to learn why. Yet the stock Slackware comes with ImageMagick and not GraphicsMagick, thus my reason for focusing on the ImageMagick failures. Getting KOffice to build with GraphicsMagick support is nice but not imperative.

The odd part is when I have neither Magick package installed then only karbon, chalk and krossrunner build. Weird.
