Ubuntu, we go....

Post by kustom »

I have just installed Ubuntu on my PC and i tried to install ImageMagick, i just follow instructions from ImageMagick.org to install from source ( i see there is not a package for ubuntu, so i decide to install from source ).

first of all i download the source code ( a file called ImageMagick.tar.gz )
then i decompress the file with tar xvfz ImageMagick.tar.gz
then i just do a MAKE
and later just a MAKE INSTALL

well, it seems like is perfect.... but when i try to do a DISPLAY (like write in documentation) i just get the next error:

No such file libMagickCore.so.1

I get the same error when i just invoke Convert... :(

what is wrong in my system???

thanks in advance

Most likely libMagickCore.so was installed in /lusr/local/lib. Make sure your permissions on this folder is set properly and use the ldconfig command or LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to set your dynamic load path.
