more precisely, the dependency of libImageMagick1 are wrong

From libImageMagick1 entry in setup.ini:
requires: libbz2_1 libfontconfig1 libfpx libfreetype6 
libjasper1 libjbig2 libjpe g62 liblcms1 libpng12 libtiff6
libxml2 xorg-server zlib0 libgcc1 cygwin

so libgomp1 and libltdl7 are not reported and 
libtiff6 is requested instead of libtiff5
