Anyone have any luck installing ImageMagick 6.4.x on CentOS 5? I need to use MagickWand for PHP and that requires ImageMagick 6.3.5 or later. Any successful install of IM 6.3.5 or later will suit my needs fine.

Since the version of ImageMagick in the yum repositories was limited to version 6.2.8, I tried to install 6.4.2 from its rpm, but got the following errors:

libHalf.so.6 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libIex.so.6 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libIlmImf.so.6 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libIlmThread.so.6 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libImath.so.6 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libcdt.so.4 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libgraph.so.4 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libgvc.so.4 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386
libjasper.so.1 is needed by ImageMagick-6.4.2-1.i386

Hmmm... anyone have any luck installing on CentOS 5 (x386)? Is there a yum package somewhere of a 6.3.5+ version that I haven't noticed?

Thanks.

Use rpmbuild and build from the ImageMagick source RPM. That will adapt the ImageMagick configuration to your host environment.

can you please explain how use rmbuild ??
