[Bug 1550210] Re: ImageMagick Entries not working in whiskers

OK. I had some time today to work out the branch structure being used
for imagemagick on alioth in Debian. It appears that the version of
imagemagick in Debian Experimental fixes the duplicated desktop issue by
making imagemagick-6.q16 a virtual package for the default quantum depth
& imagemagick with the appropriate Replaces/Breaks & Provides etc.
Therefore, both packages are not installed at the same time. This is all
a bit much to bring over to Ubuntu at this stage.

So, I have suggested a fix in ubuntustudio-menu to remove the
duplication for Ubuntu Studio.

That just leaves the issue that clicking on the remaining menu item does
nothing. So I have reduced my patch down to just fixing this issue by
setting Terminal=true in the desktop file.

I hope someone can help by uploading this before the Xenial release,
because having a menu item that does not work is very frustrating for
users. And there is a really simple fix.
