error: librsvg/rsvg-cairo.h: No such file or directory

[randomdan]

Hi,

I'm trying to build ImageMagick on a shared host (dreamhost). I've installed cairo-1.10.0 and librsvg-2.9.5 but I'm getting the error "librsvg/rsvg-cairo.h: No such file or directory" (followed by other errors). Any ideas?

Thanks!
Dan

Add --without-rsvg to the configure script command line and rebuild ImageMagick. Alternatively, make sure the RSVG and CAIRO development headers are installed on your system.

Thanks - I'd really like to be able to convert SVG images though. Can you explain a little more about installing the development headers? Where can I get the files and where should I put them on my system?

Hi,
You've got the latest cairo-1.10.0 (Sep 2010) but librsvg-2.9.5 is ancient (Jan 2005) and does not contain rsvg-cairo.h
Suggest you try the latest from here:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/librsvg/2.32/

On my Slackware 13.0 I have librsvg-2.26.0 + cairo-1.8.8 and on Slackware Current librsvg-2.32.0 + cairo-1.10.0
I note that on Slackware Current there is a patch for Cairo, detailed here
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336696
and available here:
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp. ... s.patch.gz

Cheers,
Peter

Hi Peter,

I really appreciate your help! I didn't realize that my librsvg was out of date - after installing the latest version, imagemagick built without errors and works!

Regards,
Dan
