Bug 25385

I have uploaded a patched package for Mageia 7 fixing GDL initialization issue.


You can test by installing "gnudl" package and starting it on the command line by entering "gdl". With the new package, currently landing in core/updates_testing, gdl should start without any issue (just a warning on GM using 8bits/pixel).


Suggested advisory:
========================

Update GnuDL package to fix an unexpected abort during the initialization of the GraphicsMagick library.
