Bug 192755 – GraphicsMagick ebuild should be restored to Gentoo

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 190372
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Bob Friesenhahn 2007-09-17 01:10:48 UTC]

GraphicsMagick used to be a supported Gentoo package but then it was pulled due to loss of a maintainer, and the fact that the GraphicsMagick project was slow to resolve several outstanding security issues.  However, GraphicsMagick has now produced releases resolving all known security issues.  The 1.1.9 release was cut today.  The software is quite stable and easy to maintain.

Reproducible: Always

That means a developer should pick up the work and the responsibility...

I don't see any 1.1.9 announcement on the website, but here's a patch for the bump to 1.1.8 (using [1]).
