Due to the security issues ([1] for example) and act as newcomer
provenpackager I'll plan update ImageMagick in Fedora 16 too (I should

Hi Pavel,
I'm not sure it's a good idea to do ImageMagick soname bump and a large
scale rebuild in a stable Fedora release. The last ImageMagick soname
bump in F17 was very painful, with broken deps in the repo for about a
month. Isn't it possible to backport the individual security patches to
F16 and avoid the ImageMagick ABI change?
It is main reason why I request provenpackager rights. In fedora 17
it was so painful because I several times asks build dependencies
and then ask help to push updates too.
