Bug Description

not sure where imagemagick came from. clean install. first reboot produced many unconfigured items and unprocessed triggers. ran dpkg and cleaned up most of it except for image magick. removed using synaptic. seems you want to discourage use of synaptic or you'd leave it in new installs.
