[oi-dev] imagemagick

[Alexander Pyhalov]

I'm a bit confused.

$ pkg search -Hr 'depend::image/imagemagick' | awk  '{ print $4; }' | 
cut -d @ -f 1  | sort | uniq
pkg:/desktop/xscreensaver/hacks/rss-glx
pkg:/redistributable
pkg:/SUNWimagick


Don't we have anything in repository except one scrensaver that requires 
imagemagick ???

I've checked on my KDE-based FreeBSD desktop:
pkg_info -R ImageMagick-6.7.7.0_1
Information for ImageMagick-6.7.7.0_1:

Required by:
libdmtx-0.7.4_2
prison-1.0_1
kdepimlibs-4.8.3_1
kdepim-runtime-4.4.11.1_2
kdepim-4.4.11.1_3
kde-workspace-4.8.3_1
kdeplasma-addons-4.8.3_1
kgpg-4.8.3
kdeutils-4.8.3
kdenetwork-4.8.3_2
kdeadmin-4.8.3_1
kdetoys-4.8.3_1
kdeartwork-4.8.3_1
kde-4.8.3
konversation-1.4_2

It seems the whole kde requires it using libdmtx. Can someone with JDS 
or Gnome2/Mate on Linux/FreeBSD  desktop check what packages require 
imagemagick?
