[Bug 1697451] Re: package imagemagick-6.q16 8:6.9.7.4+dfsg-3ubuntu1.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Steve Beattie]

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug.  I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public
