Buiding Image Magick using disable installed

Post by chanoy »

Hi,

I'm trying build image magick in such a way that it doesn't depend on environment variables such as MAGICK_HOME, etc.

I was able to build such binaries for windows fine following the website instructions. However, it didn't work when I try to build one for Linux.

So on linux, I did the following:

./configure --disable-installed
make
make install

when I try to run "convert" at /user/local/bin, I get the following

convert: UnableToOpenConfigureFile 'delegates.xml'
convert: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat
convert: MissingAnImageFilename

So I set the two env vars. MAGICK_CODER_MODULE_PATH and MAGICK_CONFIGURE_PATH to point to the right place, and everything works.

However, I would like it to work without setting any env vars. Did I miss configured something? Perhaps I need to pass in another option besides disable installed?

Thanks for any help,
onyee
