Comment (by joostdekeijzer):
Hi Ryan,
Thanks for your reply.
A quick overview:
**bin dir**
- v7 by default creates aliases to the new `magick` command for all v6
commands (eg. `animate`, `convert` etc.)
- v7 has some additional aliasses v6 does not have (eg. new `magick-
script` alias links to `magick` binary)
- the `*-config` commands are the same (`Magick++-config`, `MagickCore-
config` and `MagickWand-config`)
I have no suggestion how to logically handle this.
**pkgconfig**
Both versions create a versioned and an unversioned file. The content is
the same within a version ("ImageMagick.pc" is the same as
"ImageMagick-7.Q16.pc")
Could be handled as you suggest in comment:19 by renaming the v7
"ImageMagick.pc" to |ImageMagcik-7.pc" ?
**man files**
Both versions have broadly the same man filenames (eg. "animate.1",
"compare.1", "Magick-config.1", etc.)
Keeping these in separate directories might be the only solution?
Looking forward to your feedback!
