     a2ps uses the `convert` program from ImageMagick, and its use pre-dates
     ImageMagick 7.

     Awesome also uses `convert`, and this code is from 2009.
     
     So, they need to stay with ImageMagick 6 for now.

So far as I'm aware, the "convert" program's interface has not changed between 6 and 7
so unless we know of a particular problem, I don't see why they could not move to vers
7 immediately.
