Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Hello
a time ago
I installed imagemagick on Debian8, then i installed Inkscape, thus changing the delegate in xml file.
However, I would like to know how to switch back to the original delegate RSVP I think?

Here is the current line :
<delegate decode="svg:decode" stealth="True" command="&quot;inkscape&quot; &quot;%s&quot; --export-eps=&quot;%s&quot; --export-dpi=&quot;%s&quot; --export-background=&quot;%s&quot; --export-background-opacity=&quot;%s&quot; &gt; &quot;%s&quot; 2&gt;&amp;1"/>

thanks in advance !

The situation for Windows is: if Inkscape is on the system path, IM will use it as the SVG delegate. So if you don't want to use Inkscape as the delegate, remove it from the path.

I'm fairly sure the same is true for flavours of Unix, but you will need to check.

what about uninstalling inkscape?

sudo apt-get remove inkscape

i wonder if removing inkscape will leave imagemagick functional...

Yes. If you uninstall Inkscape then it won't be on the system path and IM won't try to use it.
