[solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
This may sound like a very uninformative post, but I can't remember the last time I had trouble running a simple:
convert Yui.jpg Yui.pngHowever now, it doesn't work on any image I try. I always get:
convert: no decode delegate for this image format `Yui.jpg' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/532.
convert: missing an image filename `Yui.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2970.I tried reinstalling imagemagick... I'm using 6.6.2.10-1. Should I try compiling it or is there something simpler you recommend first?

Great things come in tar.xz packages.

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
Did you upgrade sth? Changed some configs?

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
Knowing what configs to change is the problem I think. There's a file in /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.6.2/config called "delegates.xml". Am I supposed to know how to rewrite this for every format I want to use with "convert"?
Also, what is sth? I can't find a package with that name in the repos or the AUR. Thanks.

Sorry, I meant: did you upgrade anything? If it was working OK and now it's not, maybe you misconfigured it? I don't think you need to configure it at all to just 'convert Yui.jpg Yui.png'.
Does it happen with all conversions? png -> jpg, jpg -> png, tiff -> png and so on?
Maybe the image is somehow 'weird', doest it happen with many different (not from the same source) pictures?
Edit: Try renaming Yui.jpg to Yui.jpeg and run
convert Yui.jpeg Yui.pngLast edited by karol (2010-08-27 10:45:15)

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
Haha, now I know I've been using Arch for too long!
That gives me the same:
[root@connors-laptop Random]# convert Yui.jpeg Yui.png
convert: no decode delegate for this image format `Yui.jpeg' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/532.
convert: missing an image filename `Yui.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2970.Something else is interesting. Display which is another imagemagick program fails as well:
[root@connors-laptop Random]# display Yui.jpg
display: no decode delegate for this image format `Yui.jpg' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/532.
display: no decode delegate for this image format `' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/532.It seems like imagemagick's ability to do things with images is broken! I have yet to find a single image on my system that will "display." I guess I should post my delegates.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE delegatemap [

<!--
Delegate command file.
Commands which specify
decode="in_format" encode="out_format"
specify the rules for converting from in_format to out_format These
rules may be used to translate directly between formats.
Commands which specify only
decode="in_format"
specify the rules for converting from in_format to some format that
ImageMagick will automatically recognize. These rules are used to
decode formats.
Commands which specify only
encode="out_format"
specify the rules for an "encoder" which may accept any input format.
For delegates other than ps:*, pcl:*, and mpeg:* the substitution rules are
as follows:
%i input image filename
%o output image filename
%u unique temporary filename
%Z unique temporary filename
%# input image signature
%b image file size
%c input image comment
%g image geometry
%h image rows (height)
%k input image number colors
%m input image format
%p page number
%q input image depth
%s scene number
%w image columns (width)
%x input image x resolution
%y input image y resolution
Set option delegate:bimodal=true to process bimodal delegates otherwise they
are ignored.

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
Also, recompiling imagemagick didn't help.

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
I never encountered this problem, but you could check the output of
convert -list configureThe lines 'DELEGATES' and 'LIBS' may be interesting.

Re: [solved] Imagemagick convert not working at all
Aaah thanks. It turns out I've been overzealous about removing libtool files. The version I built failed because I used "!libtool" and as for the one from the repos, I have pacman aliased to a script that cleans my packages as it installs them.
I'll be more careful with that. This is the first program I've seen that genuinely needs the *.la
