OK, so what about turning this into a question that's right for this 
newsgroup.

What about making it a *priority* to remove the Image magic dependence 
in bugzilla ?

- Image magic is probably the most complex component to install in 
bugzilla. It's not by default in most distribution, and can not be 
installed only by compiling a perl module.

- It's usefulness is incredibly low

- I can't help thinking it *must* be possible to replace it with 
something that causes less problems.

At least, a first solution would be to make it really optionnal, and 
remove it from the list of modules that "install-module.pl --all" installs.

Another good thing while talking about "install-module.pl --all" :
- it should ask which db you want to use (or except it's name as an 
option) and only install the components related to it.

A last good thing would be to make the installation instruction in 
Bugzilla-Guide.txt much more streamlined when aiming non-root users 
using install-module.pl.
