Hello,

I am playing with my Gscreendump app and I found an image that causes ImageMagick to crash.
These are the commands I run:

# Get the base image
wget http://www.edbl.no/tmp/header.gif

# Convert it to png
convert header.gif image1.png

# Rotate 45 degrees
convert image1.png -rotate 45 image2.png

Error:
convert: magick/memory.c:452: CopyMagickMemory: Assertion `destination != (void *) ((void *)0)' failed.

The same error happens when I call
MagickRotateImage(image, background, angle);
from c code. The code is here... [look for magickwand_rotate_image() function].
---------------
I generated the image1.png by drag & dropping the "header.gif" image to my Gscreendump application.

You can save_as or import images to any format (PDF files, PNG, etc....), thanks to ImageMagick.

EDIT: The operatingsystem where this error occurs is
cat /etc/*issue*
Ubuntu Linux 9.04 (64bits) Jaunty Jackalope (development branch, alpha6...)

I also sent this message to Ubuntuforums.org. See post #6953541.

EDIT: The same test on 64bits Ubuntu 8.10.
The above commands work well (without errors) in 64bits Ubuntu 8.10. The ImageMagick version is
mogrify -version

We have a patch for the problem your reported. Look for it in ImageMagick 6.5.0-8 available sometime tomorrow. Thanks.

Thank you very much
