When I run make in the ImageMagick-6.4.1 directory, after a minute or so, it stops compiling with this error:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'Magick++/lib/STL.cpp', needed by 'Magick++/lib/STL.lo'. Stop.

This is true for ImageMagick-6.4.1.1 and ImageMagick-6.4.1.5

How do I fix this?

We have never seen this problem before. Are any of the Magick++ modules built? Do you need Magick++? If not you can add --without-magick-plus-plus to your configure command line and rebuild.

I do not need the C++ libs. I will try that.

Here are the files I had in the Magick++/lib directory after it failed:

Blob.cpp Drawable.lo ImageMagick++.pc Options.cpp
Blob.lo Drawable.o ImageMagick++.pc.in Options.lo
Blob.o Exception.cpp Image.o Options.o
BlobRef.cpp Exception.lo ImageRef.cpp op.txt
BlobRef.lo Exception.o ImageRef.lo Pixels.cpp
BlobRef.o Functions.cpp ImageRef.o Pixels.lo
CoderInfo.cpp Functions.lo Magick++ Pixels.o
CoderInfo.lo Functions.o Magick++.h stl.cpp
CoderInfo.o Geometry.cpp Magick++.pc Thread.cpp
Color.cpp Geometry.lo Magick++.pc.in TypeMetric.cpp
Color.lo Geometry.o Montage.cpp
Color.o Image.cpp Montage.lo
Drawable.cpp Image.lo Montage.o

Still failed to build. I'm not a linux expert so I might be missing something basic.

Here is the last bit of the compile output before it failed.

Try

• make -k -i

Here is the output after using make -k -i

After running "make -k -i" the Convert program appears in the Utilities directory. But when I run it, I get this error:

lt-convert: UnableToOpenConfigureFile `delegates.xml'.
lt-convert: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `gb_test_L.tif'.
lt-convert: MissingAnImageFilename `test.bmp'.

I've been able to get everything working in windows but I can't seem to get it running in Linux. I have a version of Convert on my Linux system under /usr/bin/convert that runs fine with the have parameters as above. So my input file is valid.

I'm not sure what went wrong in your installation process, but I think you need to test the convert program with a GIF image. ImageMagick's default installation supports only GIF images. You need to install the required libraries to support JPEG, PNG and TIFF formats.

Is there information on how to install TIFF and DPX? I don't see it anywhere.

Everything just works when you build in Windows. I thought it would be the same for Linux.

I don't know much about DPX but for TIFF, JPEG and PNG I found the site below useful. Check it out and see if you find it useful.

(You may need to change some configuration parameters depending on the Linux Distro you use)

But you still may have problems with the installation because the source of error seems to be something different in your case. I did not have to use the -k -i flags for make.
From what I know, If convert works on a GIF image, the installation has most likely succeeded and you just need to reinstall the software with delegate libraries to support the formats you want (as described in the site above).

I get the same error with a gif file. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

As of now, I really don't know what is causing the problem with your installation. If you let me know the configure command you used .. may be I could try it out on my machine and see how it is turning out ...

I'm using ./configure --without-magick-plus-plus

I've posted the output from "./configure --without-magick-plus-plus" in configoutput.txt here: http://drop.io/dpxfile

You will also find a the output of a plain make in makenooptionsoutput.txt (This is without the -k -i)

Thank you for looking at this!!

I started working with ImageMagick with ImageMagick-windows.zip downloaded at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/advan ... lation.php

This zip file contains all the code needed for all the different image formats. (TIFF, DPX, etc.) Why don't the main linux downloads contain these files? Can I use these source files in my linux build?

Hi Drew, I've just been going through the config output you posted and comparing it with the version I have, the field LDFLAGS is different (It is blank in your file). I'm *guessing* this is the reason why the installation is failing...

Try this and see if it works:

(First start with a clean slate.. remove any previous versions using make uninstall and make clean)

- With your config command, specify LDFLAGS as follows (depending on your Linux distro)

./configure LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib'

OR

./configure LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib' (I used this for Ubuntu Hardy Heron)

- make
- make install (as root)

If this gives you a convert that works for a GIF, then the installation is done. You need to add the delegate libraries and reinstall IM with those config flags as well to complete the process (the website i posted earlier outlines this pretty well).

You cannot use the Windows Source files for this, so far as I know. You need to install the delegates from their Unix Sources (they are available on that site as well)

Still failed the same way. Could it have something to do with my OS or compiler? What are you using?
