[Typo3-debian] Debian with ImageMagick 4.2.9

[Thomas Lorenzen]

Hello Everyone,

I know many people ask about ImageMagick 4.2.9...

I am running several debian servers. One is running a minimum of
typo3-related debian packages and instead uses compiled binaries (LAMP
install script). Other servers are running Woody with Michael Stucki's
debian packages. Another one is running a dist-upgraded (testing) debian 3.0
also with Stucki's debs.

My question is: Has anyone composed a server that mainly uses Michael
Stucki's debs on a stable or testing dist, but also has support on-the-side
for IM 4.2.9 including support for effects, PDF and AI ? I've had some luck
with the static IM 4.2.9, but it seems my GDlib is broken using that one,
also the PHP-function ImageGif is not supported... By the way, I'm planning
to use the above in a production setup, so it has to be safe and stable...
;)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

! I would want pay a few consultancy hours if you have the perfect solution!

Kindest Regards,
