[Typo3-debian] GraphicsMagick-Packages for Debian

Hi Michael,

sources.

I did this, and it worked for me as well.

This worked also but it showed that the symbolic links didn't work. I went
to your page:
http://www.mstucki.net/files/typo3/gm_wrapper/
downloaded the two files, ftp graphicsmagick_wrapper.sh to /usr/bin
chmod to have it have execute rights, otherwise I got permission denied.
now the symbolic links where okay.

I didn't get this as every line in your code was already included after I
used typo3-site-installer to setup a TYPO3 website. The localconf.php file
had all lines that where in the code localconf_gm.php.txt.
So I didn't do anything with this one only putting
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["GFX"]["im_v5effects"] = '-1'; in as it had '1' in my case.
That was the only difference I had.

So everything should be setup now as it should? If yes please let me know as
I don't have enough time left to setup a typo3 website to test is. I
definitely will do this and let you all know if it's working on sarge debian
version I'm using (it should work as you have it working yourself as well;)

Why do we always have to work for a boss and don't have time left to try
these nice things ;-) So I think I have set it up right now. Now the big
test to see if it's working with a site I will have to do later today or
maybe tomorrow. I'll keep you posted if you like this.
