Bug Description

On trying to run MAGICK-INSTALL is stops with the error "No pacakge managers compatible with this installer." (It also gives and error about magic_roataion.desktop, but that isn't the issue.)

This is caused by using the deprecated FetchProgress api in the python apt.progress package. The newer versions use apt.progress.old but that interface has been removed now.

The solution is to change to package apt.progress.gtk2 and change FetchProgress to GOpProgress and InstallProgress to GInstallProgress (in file apt_installprogress_gtk.py)

Patch attached. After the change it installed and ran fine.
