Installation problem on Solaris

Trying to install version "Solaris Sparc 2.10" on Solaris from the binary distribution, as described in http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php.

After setting all parameters as instructed (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc), trying to run "convert" brings up missing library errors. I could see no information on library dependencies at the above link -- does one have to install things like libtiff.so and libjpeg.so separately to make imagemagick work? Is there a convenient place to get all of the required libraries or is it necessary to go through full installations from each of these sources?

Also, does this binary distribution assume that gcc has been installed on the same machine?

Below is the output of "ldd convert":

libMagickCore.so.1 => /home/apps/imm/ImageMagick-6.3.8/lib/libMagickCore.so.1

We will issue a new Solaris binary release within a day or two to fix the problem you reported.

Great, many thanks for the quick response and the good news. (I assume it will run even if gcc is not installed?)
