ImageMagick suddenly installed
I was taking a look at my installed programs, when I saw a program called ImageMagick
, I took a look at it in the Ubuntu Software Center, and it's a program to manipulate images.
That's OK, but I never installed that! I saw that I installed that approx. 1 month ago (May 25).
Just to be sure, did it came with an update or something like that?
In addition to the above answer, you can have some checks.
From your Software Center you can know the recent installed or updated apps.
And you can know which apps have imagemagick
as dependency so you can know which app had installed it.
apt-cache rdepends imagemagick
sample output:
Reverse Depends:
inkscape
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
formatjunkie
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
playonlinux
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
lives
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
variety
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
|ejabberd
graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
imagemagick:i386
|qt4-qmlviewer
From man apt-get
rdepends pkg...
rdepends shows a listing of each reverse dependency a package has.
Imagemagick was installed, because it is required by another program that you recently (May 25) installed.
No voodoo, no magic. ;)
