There is a known bug in ImageMagick 6.3.5.9 that leads to a failure of converting files using ghostscript-8.60. Convert .ps to .eps etc fail. This is acknowledged and fixed in 6.3.5.10. Suggest updating to this version. FYI
This bug is still valid....could we please update to 6.3.5.10 or higher?
I've just encountered a failure converting .pdf to .eps, possibly the same bug. I thought I'd try upgrading ImageMagick on my own, but my naive attempt to convert the Fedora .spec file to build the latest source tarball failed. If the maintainer could get an official upgrade to build, I'd be happy to help test.
Short intro: I'm a new co-maintainer of ImageMagick and as such I'm going through all open ImageMagick bugs. Unfortunately 6.3.5.10 and later change the soname of the ImageMagick libraries, so an update for F-8, or for F-9 even is not going to happen as that requires rebuilding many dependent packages. 6.4.0.10-1, will show up in rawhide once rawhide unfreezes from the current F-9 final freeze.
