    Installing ImageMagick v6

    Has anyone tried installing Image Magick or make/build on Suse Linux 10 Enterprise Server. I have looked everywhere and came across this tut ImageMagick - Free opensource tool to compile covert compose images | SUSE & openSUSE but I got the following error message:
    -------------------------
    make install-am
    make[1]: Entering directory `/root/ImageMagick-6.4.9-8'
    /bin/sh ./libtool --silent --tag=CC
    --mode=link gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 -Wall -W -pthread -no-undefined -export-symbols-regex ".*" -module -avoid-version -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lfreetype -lz -o coders/jp2.la -rpath /usr/local/lib/ImageMagick-6.4.9/modules-Q16/coders coders/coders_jp2_la-jp2.lo magick/libMagickCore.la -ljasper -lm

    /usr/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libjpeg.la: No such file or directory
    libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libjpeg.la' is not a valid libtool archive

    make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/ImageMagick-6.4.9-8'
    make: *** [install] Error 2
    ---------------------------

    Does anyone have any clue what is going on? One of my very much needed Drupal modules is requiring this software on the Linx box.

    Thanks

    looks like you have a missing dependency.

    ImageMagic is in the Suse repository. Installing from the repository via Yast would take care of any dependencies.

    You should always check if a package is available in Yast before trying to compile.

    How do I locate that within Yast I tried looking for it in the repository and could not find it.

    Yast-Software-Software Management

    search for "ImageMagic"

    Of course you are using
    Suse Linux 10 Enterprise Server

    maybe it is not available in the official 10.0 Server repository
    Mine is 10.2 and I see it in my opensuse repository

    If you are going to compile it you need at least the libjeg package and most likely libpng package. But the list of required libraries is long and there might be others you might require.

    The required list should be in the documentation somewhere.

    Image Magick

    I would much rather use the repisotory but it seems everyone is having problems finding the Image Magic rpm in opensuse repository.

    How I can add other repositories besides the default one's? Have you seen or heard of anyone building Image Magic on Suse Linux Enterprise I really need to get this up and running I cant upload images to Drupal without it.

    Here is the problem. You are running Suse 10.0. Many repositories no longer support this version.

    To add new repositories use Yast-Software-Source, But note the above.

    As to compiling. You simply need to find and install those libraries that the package depends on.

    In your fist post the error says that the make can not find libjpeg. This is the lib you need to add before you can successfully compile. Note, libjpeg may also have requred dependencies etc.

    Wink Success

    I needed to install the libjpeg developer files and the ImageMagick build ran after i did "test install"

    Thanks to everyone who responded.
