Description James Manning 2002-04-02 22:47:29 UTC
pretty simple - if you keep the mouse busy (like selecting a menu or 
something) when import runs and it has a problem with it, you'll get 
an incorrect error about missing a filname. 
 
With mouse busy: 
 
jmm@jmm:/tmp> sleep 3;import foo.png 
import: Unable to grab the mouse. 
import: Unable to read X window image (). 
import: Missing an image file name. 
jmm@jmm:/tmp> 
 
Without mouse busy: 
 
jmm@jmm:/tmp> sleep 3;import foo.png 
jmm@jmm:/tmp> 
 
I'd expect the first two about mouse and X window image, just not the 
missing filename

still in 7.3

jmm@jmm /tmp> sleep 3;import foo.png
import: Unable to grab the mouse.
import: Unable to read X window image ().
import: Missing an image file name.
jmm@jmm /tmp> rpm -qf $(which import)
ImageMagick-5.4.3.11-1

This isn't too surprising.  I don't think it's worth fixing, though.
