Install Imagemagick by running the following commands:
sed -i -e 's/\$(LIBLTDL) \$/\$/' Makefile.in &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-modules &&
make
Now, as the root user:
make install
There are additional switches that can be passed to ImageMagick to customize the installation to your needs. Check out the ImageMagick installation instructions at http://www.imagemagick.org/www/Install-unix.html.
sed -i -e 's/\$(LIBLTDL) \$/\$/' Makefile.in: The package will build and install a different version of the Libtool library in /usr/lib. This command forces the package to link to the installed version of libltdl, and not replace it.
--with-modules: Enables support for dynamically loadable modules.
animates a sequence of images.
compares an image to a reconstructed image.
composites various images into the given base image.
processes a MSL script to create an image.
converts image(s) from one format to another.
displays an image.
describes the format and characteristics of an image file.
captures an X window.
show information about the installed versions of ImageMagick and Magick++.
transforms an image.
composites various images into a new image.
shows the options required to use the Wand library.
allows the reading, manipulation and writing of a large number of image file formats using the ImageMagick library. Run make in the PerlMagick/demo directory of the package source tree to see a nice demo of the module's capabilities.
