cups + ImageMagick

[ratler at lunar-linux.org]

Well i just want to add another annoyance to the ImageMagick thing, _IF_ 
we are going to keep to major releases, which is totally fine with me (and 
of course if there is big security flaw we must update) we also need to 
upload the current tarball to our cache archive. Since ImageMagick always 
remove their old tarball.
