Ok one issue I found is that this package does not seem to be on the
DVD's I was using to test for incompatibilities (it also turns out
that this is x86_64 only which I hadn't looked at stupid me).
Thankfully CentOS does have them on the DVD's so I have switched to
using them for the tests. The script I am using needs a lot of
tweaking still things like ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick both provide
vicar.so but not in conflicting ways.
