[Pkg-gmagick-im-team] Bug#596732: perlmagick: BlobToImage fails for SVG

[Thomas Marshall]

Package: perlmagick
Version: 8:6.6.0.4-2.2
Severity: important

When using Image::Magick within perl script to convert SVG data to other,
script fails with no delegate found error when using BlobToImage.  Imagemagick
does properly handle SVG (convert, etc).

I recompiled the imagemagick package source and found that to work correctly.
I needed to compile and install perlmagick (and libMagickCore.so as well).

It seems maybe libxml2 was not linked in with perlmagick when it was compiled.
