[Bug 1877032] Re: Unable to use Pango with ImageMagick

Just to be sure, you have libmagickcore-6.q16-3-extra installed? That's
were pango codec exists.

Title:
  Unable to use Pango with ImageMagick

Status in imagemagick package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am trying to use Pango for rendering text with Imagemagick, but it
  is not recognized. I'm on Linux Mint 19.9 Tessa 64 Bit, which uses
  Bionic packages.

  The same command works fine on Ubuntu Trusty (14.04).

  So, I am wondering whether this is a packaging bug. If it is not,
  please close this.

  This is what I was doing:

  I am trying to run one of the examples from:
  https://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/text/#pango

  ```
  $ convert -background lightblue pango:"Anthony Thyssen" pango.gif
  ```
  Resulting in:

  ```
  convert-im6.q16: unable to open image `pango:Anthony Thyssen': No such file or directory @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2701.
  convert-im6.q16: no decode delegate for this image format `' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/504.
  convert-im6.q16: no images defined `pango.gif' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3258.
  ```

  I checked the available formats with `convert -list format` and Pango
  is indeed not listed.
