Installation of ImageMagick 6.4

Post by t-servi »

Hello,
I'm trying to install Image Magick 6.4 on a Debian 4.0.
When I configure the product I receive these lines :

ZLIB              --with-zlib=yes               yes

What is the meaning of these "delegate configuration"? Is it good to have "yes" everyware? How can I do to have yes everyware?
Thank's in advance.
Best regards.

You only need a delegate to validate if you require it in your workflow. Assume you want to read/write JPEG images. Your configure output says it was not validated. To validate it, look at config.log and determine why the validation failed. Next fix the problem and rerun the configure script and ensure the JPEG validate passes. For JPEG you will most likely need to install the JPEG and JPEG development distributions. The development distribution is needed because ImageMagick requires the JPEG headers (e.g. jpeg.h).
