What I really needed was an elucidation of this paragraph:- IMAGEMAGICK_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/ImageMagick-6 IMAGEMAGICK_LIBS="-lMagickCore-6.Q16HDRI -lMagick++-6.Q16HDRI -lMagickWand-6.Q16HDRI" : use these when you invoke configure if you have installed ImageMagick-6.9.7-8 libraries <http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/systemd/general/imagemagick6.html> and wish to link to them (the normal unversioned pkgconfig files collide with ImageMagick-7.0.4-8 <http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/systemd/general/imagemagick.html> which this package cannot use). Does it mean (as I think it does) that emacs-25.2 will build against ImageMagick-6.9.7-8 but not against ImageMagick-7.0.4-8? Thanks for your help. Richard
