Comment(by ryandesign@…):
I'm happy to add a port:urw-fonts dependency to ImageMagick if that
prevents people from encountering an error. I hadn't seen the error myself
(except when I tried in response to this ticket), because I don't do font
things with ImageMagick, and also I already have urw-fonts installed
because it's a dependency of graphviz, which I always have installed.
The issue in this ticket that the paths specified are nonsensical (e.g.
/opt/local/lib/ImageMagick-6.4.8/config//opt/local/share/ghostscript/fonts/n021003l.pfb)
seems to have been resolved upstream by now; I can no longer reproduce
that. But even with urw-fonts installed, I still get the following error,
so I don't think adding a urw-fonts dependency is a solution:
{{{
convert: unable to read font
`/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @
error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059.
convert: unable to read font
`/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @
error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059.
convert: unable to read font
`/opt/local/share/ghostscript/fontsx/n021003l.pfb' @
error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1059.
}}}
Looking back at [http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick-
bugs/2009-February/003174.html the thread I opened with the ImageMagick
developers], it doesn't seem to have reached a conclusion. I may have
forgotten to respond. It seemed to have ended with the developers saying
ImageMagick should be using FontConfig if it's there, and ImageMagick in
MacPorts does use FontConfig, so I still don't know why anything is trying
to read these PFB fonts instead of the TrueType ones provided by Mac OS X.
