ImageMagick
« on: April 21, 2008, 08:50:41 PM »
Hi,

I am trying to use ImageMagick, and I am doing something not right.
yum search imagemagic shows:
Code: [Select]
ImageMagick.i386                         6.0.7.1-17.el4_6.1     installedBut when I do a locate ImageMagick after doing a fresh updatedb, I can't find the binaries.

I saw a thread that mentioned:
Code: [Select]
yum --enablerepo=base --enablerepo=updates install ImageMagickand I get:
Code: [Select]
==============================================================
WARNING: Additional commands may be required after running yum
==============================================================

Any suggestion?

Yes, in fact two:
1. Search through your path environment variable and will give you the location of the file if it can find it in it:
Code: [Select]
which convert
2. Lists the content of the ImageMagick contrib and will give you the location of the convert executable:
Code: [Select]
rpm -ql ImageMagick | grep convert

Yes convert is there: I am trying to run Serependity and it has found properly convert, but is=t asks for the ImageMagick binary. Are you saying that convert is the actual binary?

Thanks

Yes most likely it is as there is no such thing as the imagick or ImageMagick binary. Are you sure your application is asking for a specific repository or the folder where it can find the different ImageMagick binaries?
