[Pkg-gmagick-im-team] Bug#680928: Bug#680928: Imagmagick convert UTF8 non breaking space

[Matt Cockayne]

An example of the command executed is (less UTF8 nonbreaking space as may
not translate across email)

usr/bin/convert -size 160 -pointsize 19 -channel RGBA -fill "rgb(0,0,116)"
-weight 400 -font "/site/data/fonts/Ampersand.ttf" -gravity NorthWest
-background none caption:'Name, saw this and thought of you! Cheers Name'
-flatten "/site/data/tmp/1341835864.3593.png"

output of convert --version

Version: ImageMagick 6.6.0-4 2012-05-02 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2010 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Features: OpenMP

We have tested with a number of different versions in a sandbox
environment... this exact issue resolves itself by 6.6.9 but others issues
are present see bug #680927. both issues are resolved by version 6.7.x
