this to Fix Released.

Title:
  ImageMagick Font Issues

Status in “imagemagick” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in Debian GNU/Linux:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libmagick9

  Regarding one of our web servers, a co-worker of mine filed an internal
  bug with this text:

  > ImageMagick fonts don't get properly configured -- this seems like it
  > may be a package bug to me, though I'm not sure.
  > Basically /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.4/config/type.xml, as installed,

The proper way would probably involve having every installed font package add a file to be included in type.xml. (Well, ideally, there would be a type.d directory, I suppose :) )

  Our needing to edit a configuration file which is stored
  in /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.4/config makes me nervous. It's going to get
  overwritten on upgrades, since it's not a conffile, right?
