Please read the einfo messages provided to you after the package installation. Swaygrab does not in anyway link to imagemagick, only exec'ing the convert binary. It is mentioned after the installation that imagemagick is required for grabbing screenshots (as an _optional_ feature). You can capture raw images and videos without imagemagick. Closing, as imagemagick is not in strict sense a dependency and it is mentioned that imagemagick is required for capturing .jpg/.png screenshots in the post-install messages, which are there for a reason: you SHOULD read them. |
Hello, When `dev-libs/sway` is compiled with `swaygrab` on a system without `media-gfx/imagemagick`, swaygrab fails with "Swaygrab could not run convert.". I believe it has a hard dep on imagemagick as it calls ``` execlp("convert", "convert", "-depth", "8", "-size", size, "rgba:-", "-flip", file, NULL); ``` source: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/blob/master/swaygrab/main.c Please add swaygrab? ( media-gfx/imagemagick ) to RDEPEND. Thank you!
