  Binary package hint: transcode
  
  Hi,
  
  using the logoaway filter in transcode produces the following error:
  
  [transcode] warning: Unable to load filter logoaway:
  /usr/lib/transcode/filter_logoaway.so: undefined symbol:
  DestroyConstitute
  
  This is also known for other distribution (e.g. Debian) which I think is
  then an upstream problem. The problem with filter_logoway is that during
  the compilation there is no check of all used external funtions. A
  couple of months ago the API of imagemagick has changed and
  DestroyConstitute() was replaced by ConstituteComponentTerminus() .
  
  So, the solution is to change the in line 868 of
  filter/filter_logoaway.c
  
  DestroyConstitute(); <--> ConstituteComponentTerminus();
  
  I found this in the 10.04 development version, but as I said this error
  may exist also in older distributions as well.
  
  >lsb_release -rd

  Maybe it is worth to check other packages in lucid as well before the
  final release!
