I am finding on all my CentOS 5.8 systems (all fully updated but a variety of package mixes) that the display or convert commands from ImageMagick are unable to handle eps files. I get error output as follows, curious if anyone else sees this

$ convert rna.eps rna.epi convert rna.eps rna.epi Error: /undefinedfilename in (72x72) Operand stack:

ImageMagick 5.2.8.0-12.el5 ghostcript-8.0-14.el5

the equivalent GraphicsMagick command gm convert

does work

This is a recent development, but I can't say how recent
