Hi All, We have been working further with JMagick / ImageMagick in combination with Lenya 2.0.
Could do with a pointer on where to place some libs. Bascially JMagick is a wrapper that uses JNI to hook to ImageMagick. Therefore we have a jmagick.jar and a corresponding libJMagick.so. Where would be the best place for such libraries so they would be accessible to Lenya? Currently we are keeping them outside of lenya and setting environment variables - but we would like to integrate it. Additionally I received no objection from the JMagick community to establishing a dual LGPL / Apache Licence - so this could be bundled with Lenya.
