Dear Maintainer,

With the transition from gsfonts -> fonts-urw-base35, fonts have moved and libgraphics-magick-perl (or maybe underlying libimage-magick? I can't tell), can't find fonts. When you generate images with text you get:

```
Exception 405: Unable to read font (/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n022004l.pfb)
```

The directory `/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts` no longer belongs to any package, though it existed and was almost-empty (except for a `.uuid` file) on my machine due to the transition.

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

To fix this problem one has to fix the paths in
/usr/lib/GraphicsMagick-1.3.42/config/type-ghostscript.mgk file

To workaround  this issue, install the fonts that comes with ghostscript-fonts-
std-8.11.tar.gz  in the paths that you see in above `.mgk` file.


I have installed

ii  graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat                   1.4+really1.3.42-1
all          image processing tools providing ImageMagick interface

Run the following command


convert  -size 1366x720  -background cornsilk -fill blue -pointsize 12 -font
FreeMono -gravity center label:'Some Random Screenshot'   screenshot.png

You will see the following error

convert: Unable to get type metrics (Some Random Screenshot).

Run the following command

~$ gm convert -list font

NetBSD's pkgsrc (http://pkgsrc.se/fonts/urw-fonts) calls these "urw-

    metrics="/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/a010015l.afm"
    glyphs="/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/a010015l.pfb"

Note that the fonts is coming from /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/

List the contents gsfonts package

~$ dpkg -L gsfonts

transitional dummy package (gsfonts -> fonts-urw-base35)

Now check the contents of the package fonts-urw-base35

~$ dpkg -L fonts-urw-base35 | grep 'afm\|pfb' | head
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/C059-BdIta.pfb
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/C059-Bold.pfb
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/C059-Italic.pfb
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/C059-Roman.pfb
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/D050000L.pfb

There are afm and pfb files here.

In order to fix this, the paths to font metrics etc has to be fixed in file
/usr/lib/GraphicsMagick-1.3.42/config/type-ghostscript.mgk

~$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/GraphicsMagick-1.3.42/config/type-ghostscript.mgk
libgraphicsmagick-q16-3: /usr/lib/GraphicsMagick-1.3.42/config/type-
ghostscript.mgk


To workaround this bug, I installed the fonts manually in
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/

~$ ls /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/

I used the following instructions


[[https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/gs.html][ghostscript-10.02.0]]

If you have downloaded the fonts, unpack them to =/usr/share/ghostscript= and
ensure the ownership of the files are =root=: =root=.

#+begin_example
tar -xvf ../ghostscript-fonts-std-8.11.tar.gz -C /usr/share/ghostscript --no-
same-owner &&
tar -xvf ../gnu-gs-fonts-other-6.0.tar.gz     -C /usr/share/ghostscript --no-
same-owner &&
fc-cache -v /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts/
#+end_example

taking care to replace ghostscript path with gsfonts path.

The `convert` command works now, after my workaround
