I've found the culprit: if libmagickcore-6.q16-6-extra is not installed, then this cryptic error occurs. I've reported this issue (the lack of a helpful error message) at https://github.com/mchehab/zbar/issues/202 . I'll leave it to the maintainer to decide what they'd like to do: either hardcode a dependency on libmagickcore-6.q16-6-extra, or switch zint's output format to PNG (I personally would prefer the latter).
