Trying to install ImageMagick 6.8.9 on Ubuntu 14.04 and everything seems to go fine, but when I do convert -version I get "Illegal Instruction"

More information on this (OP still needs help).. We are trying to install from source following steps in http://www.imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php .. we are thinking to help fix, there may be some setting or flag during the ./configure step. As of right now, we are not setting any flags. Should we be? Does anyone have input on whether there is a configuration setting or flag that may help resolve or debug?

I have no idea, but some more information might help people with more compilation experience than me:

- What is your computer system? What is the processor?

- Can you compile C programs? Does "CC" work? Can you run compiled C programs? Does "CC" need and flags to successfully compile and run programs?
