conjure error?

Post by caviar »

Hi,
I cannot get conjure to run! (ImageMagick-6.3.5, compiled from source on ubuntu-feisty).

I created a script file called "fun.msl"
When I run it:

conjure fun.msl

I get the following error:

conjure: no decode delegate for this image format `fun.msl'


Is this a known problem? Or is there most likely something wrong with the build? (If so, what could it be?)

Thanks!

MSL support requires libxml. When your version of ImageMagick was built, libxml or libxml development was not available. Type

identify -list format
identify -list configure

to verify.

Thanks! That was the problem. Loaded libxml2-dev, rebuilt and all is well.

Note that that "configure" did not automagically find libxml2 - I had to specifically enable it by saying "configure --with-xml"
