Hi all,

i've got a strange behavior using identify to retrieve icc profil name on two
different linux box (except that the system are the same)

I use a redhat 5 distribution, i've installed the system:
Linux machine.somewhere 2.6.18-308.20.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Nov 6 04:38:29 EST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've got two version of ImageMagick, one include with system and another compiled with my little hands.
1) the system version:
[root@machine ~]# /usr/bin/identify -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.2.8 04/25/12 Q16 file:/usr/share/ImageMagick-6.2.8/doc/index.html
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2006 ImageMagick Studio LLC
2) the compiled version:
[root@somewhere ~]# /compiled_software/run/bin/identify -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.7.9-7 2012-09-26 Q32 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2012 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Features: OpenMP HDRI,

when i make:
/usr/bin/identify -verbose tiff_exemple.tiff
or
/compiled_software/run/bin/identify -verbose tiff_exemple.tiff

I've got the same result and i can find the icc profil name:
Profiles:
Profile-8bim: 14712 bytes
Profile-icc: 2784148 bytes

On another linux box with the same system, same kernel (not same hardware but ...)
The only difference is that i'm not the guy who install this system.
But i've compiled the same version of ImageMagick with the same options...
It's impossible to get icc profil names, both (identify used with system and identify compiled)
returns:
Profiles:
Profile-8bim: 14712 bytes
Profile-icc: 2784148 bytes

but never icc profil name.

The worst is that i have two old version of ImageMagick on my osx laptop: 6.6.1-5 and 6.6.8-1
both returns icc profils names.

I really don't understand.

May you provide some ways to investigate ?

Thanks a lot

If you supply a sample where the problem occurs, people might take a look.

Hi snibgo,

if you think of sample image, it's not the way, because i've make all test with the same file.
perhaps exiftool is needed by imagemagick????

thanks for reading.
