Strange problem with PostScript files

Hello :)

we've a strange problem when trying to process postscript files. A simple:

identify test_file.pas

gives no output, even with the verbose option.

A:

convert test_file.ps test_file.jpg

results in:

convert: NoImagesDefined `test.jpg' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3068.

ImageMagick is compiled from source on a Debian 6.0 box. Ghostscript 9.04 is installed and Ghostscript itself works without any problems. The options used for configure:

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-gs-font-dir=/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts --with-magick-plus-plus --with-modules=yes \
--enable-shared --enable-lzw --without-dps --without-fpx --without-perl --disable-openmp --with-perl-options='INSTALLDIRS=vendor' --x-includes=/usr/include/X11 --x-libraries=/usr/lib/X11
The problem occurs in ImageMagick 6.8.2 and 6.8.1, but not an older version 6.7.6 - while compiling and running in the same userland (GS 9.04 as example).

For the note - the ImageMagick sources haven't been patched otherwise.
