bug#19475: Emacs-git build broken on Cygwin (ImageMagick)

Subject: bug#19475: Emacs-git build broken on Cygwin (ImageMagick)

User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.3.0

The build of today Emacs-git (emacs-01827de4518c8da974821da0439f2ad4984d49da.tar.gz) fails because it does not find the '-lMagickCore' library. Indeed recently there was an ImageMagick update (from -6.7.6.3 to 6.9.0.0) that has broken the build.

I flagged this on Cygwin list and it produced this thread:

https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-12/msg00390.html
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-12/msg00391.html
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-12/msg00393.html
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-12/msg00394.html

For what I can understand, it seems that Emacs tries to link not only with '-lMagickCore-6.Q16' but also with '-lMagickCore': in the new ImageMagick package, libMagickCore.dll.a has been renamed libMagickCore-6.Q16.dll.a. As workaround this link

  libMagickCore.dll.a -> libMagickCore-6.Q16.dll.a

in /usr/lib fixes the issue but maybe it has to be done at configure level removing the '-lMagickCore' at link time..


Ciao,
 Angelo.
