You also need the "updates" repository in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources so
up2date can install the new ImageMagick package. I intentionally put
ImageMagick in another repo so that people don't accidentally update to
it.
BTW: The updated ImageMagick can't be in "Extras" nor "Alternatives"
according to what I read on fedora.redhat.com -- newer versions of
"Core" packages needed for "Extras" can't be in "Alternatives" because
"Extras" may not depend on "Alternatives" (that's why I put it in an
"updates" repo) -- any clues on that?
NB: yum even fails on rss-glx because it doesn't think of updating
ImageMagick-{c++,perl} which require the matching library.
