I tried to install IM in my own directory (not system directory) by doing:

./configure --prefix=/home/myhome/
make
make install

But at the end of the 'make install', I got:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/myhome/Src/ImageMagick-6.2.9/PerlMagick'

into /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/x86_64-linux-thread-multi

I then tried to run a script that use convert, composite and mogrify found in 
the /home/myhome/bin directory. The results gave me the following errors:

convert: UnableToOpenBlob `xc:grey30': No such file or directory.
convert: MissingAnImageFilename `wm_fgnd.png'.
convert: UnableToOpenBlob `xc:black': No such file or directory.

...

Using the same binaries in the system directory work OK.

Can a use install this in his own home directory, or do I have to install it 
on the system? I whish to try out the new version before overwriting the 
older installation.
