Hi,

For the past week or so the Emacs bzr HEAD has failed to build with
image magick support.  The following error is signaled [1].  I'm running
a 64-but Arch GNU-Linux system, and other Arch users have noticed this
problem as well [2].  As Arch tries to include the latest version of all
tools this is likely due to a conflict with the most recent version of
imagemagick.  I have the following version installed [3].

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide.

Thanks,

Can you build the current emacs-24 branch on that machine?
If so, what happens if you visit leim/MISC-DIC/ziranma.cin?

For the trunk, does it help to add

--eval '(progn (setq imagemagick-types-inhibit t) (imagemagick-register-types))'

to RUN_EMACS in leim/Makefile.in and rebuild from a clean state?

If so, this is probably http://debbugs.gnu.org/11521

No, with the above change on trunk I still run into the same error, namely

    Loading /home/eschulte/src/emacs/lisp/image.el (source)..
    temacs: magick/exception.c:968: ThrowMagickExceptionList: Assertion `exception->signature == 0xabacadabUL' failed.

I hope this information helps, please let me know if there is anything
else I can do.

Well, it shows that the problem wasn't what I thought it was. :)

I don't suppose it helps to also add:

--eval '(progn (setq imagemagick-types-inhibit t) (imagemagick-register-types))'

to BYTE_COMPILE_EXTRA_FLAGS in lisp/Makefile.in?

If not, then I don't know what the problem could be. AFAIK, the only
relevant difference between emacs-24 and trunk is that in the latter
ImageMagick types are registered by default.

No help, I still get the same error.

Beyond my pay grade.  If there are any further tests I can run, please
let me know.

Just for the record, I get the same error with bzr r108387.

System is ArchLinux, gcc 4.7.0.

It surely might be helpful to know what the value of
exception->signature is at that point instead of knowing what it
isn't...

I can confirm that a 32bit build doesn't bail on openSUSE, so it looks
like it is related to the 64bit builds only.  What configuration did you
compile Emacs with (and it might be a good idea to check the
configuration for the Magick build as well - if they don't match, that
might explain something)?

Hi,

I am also seeing the problem of temacs failing to load lisp/image.el
on 64-bit Archlinux during build. It fails with the following output:

...
Loading /home/kopoli/src/emacs/lisp/image.el (source)...
temacs: magick/exception.c:968: ThrowMagickExceptionList: Assertion
`exception->signature == 0xabacadabUL' failed.
/bin/sh: line 6: 27994 Aborted                 `/bin/pwd`/temacs
--batch --load loadup bootstrap
...

By running temacs through gdb it appears that the problem is in the
defun "imagemagick-types". The call to "GetMagickList" receives an
argument of type ExceptionInfo, which, by my interpretation of the
error message, needs to be initialized a certain way. Currently it is
just given an uninitialized local variable as an argument.

By looking through through ImageMagick documentation, the functions
"GetExceptionInfo" and "DestroyExceptionInfo" initialize and
deinitialize the ExceptionInfo-structure, respectively.

I got the build to complete by introducing the following change:

--- src/image.c	2012-07-09 12:02:27 +0000
+++ src/image.c	2012-07-11 19:59:24 +0000

+  DestroyExceptionInfo(&ex);
   size_t i;
   Lisp_Object Qimagemagicktype;
   for (i = 0; i < numf; i++)


The generated emacs-binary at least appears to function properly. I
tested this with the following versions:

emacs: bzr:109033
gcc: 4.7.1
ImageMagick: 6.7.8-1

I see this too.  Can it be that GetExceptionInfo/DestroyExceptionInfo is version dependent and we need a configure check for them? People have run Emacs with Imagemagic without this.

I build and run emacs with imagemagick support just fine.  The IM
version is 6.7.7.5, so it might be a version difference between 6.7.7
and 6.7.8.

I also tried building and running with the above patch, and it doesn't
seem to cause any harm.

Bye,
Tassilo

Hello.

I installed the patch, lets see if it fails on some version :-).

Thanks,
