If recall correct, on 12.04 ImageMagick would at least open up with a 
very primitve GUI. Never found anything i needed in it. On 14.04 i don't 
have them either.

In 16.04 None of icons do anything, they are.... dead icons. I tried 
sudo apt-get remove imagemagick just to see, and it wanted to uninstall 
synfig with it, so i am assuming synfig is the package requiring it? But 
it's just me speculating...

I guess it would be good for me to learn.... Zequence was talking about 
making some wiki page with instructions on how to do it for happy 
dev-n00bs like myself. Let's give it a week and see... :) Thanks for 
feeding my knowledge base, Len!
