Hi,

I have a weird issue with ImageMagick-6.2.8.4:"display" don't work anymore.

I can't say exactly when I saw it last working (I was doing a lot of testing with my desktop machine).
Probably with NetBSD 3.99.17 and .19, ImageMagick version 6.2.x from 2006Q1 or 2005Q4.

I've tried to reinstall the old version (from packages build at the time of 3.99.17) but I get the same behaviour.

Now I'm running NetBSD 3.99.21/i386 and when I do:
"display XXX.png" I get the help page, as if I didn't give the right things to "display".

I had to add '.include "../../graphics/png/buildlink3.mk"' to the Makefile to get support for png files.
So that's one problem less. Still I can't use "display" :(
