Multiple versions of ImageMagick

Post by naoliv »

Hi!

I don't know how feasible it is, but I am wanting to create three different versions (from the same source) and distribute them on Debian.
One would be "imagemagick" (as it is distributed by us now). The other would be "imagemagick-hdri", with HDRI enabled and a quantum depth of 32) and "imagemagick-nox" (without using the X window system libraries and other graphical stuff, targeted at servers).

My doubt is if they can co-exist or if they need to conflict each other. For example, can I use perlmagick from the "normal" flavor but using the libraries from the -hdri version? Can I have libmagick++ from the normal, libmagickcore from -hdri and libmagickwand from -nox, installed at the same time on the system?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Nelson
