Someone recently recommended to me that HomeBrew was far more reliable at installing ImageMagick than MacPorts. Perhaps you could try that? But, taking a step back, what's the reason for installing ImageMagick/RMagick? Because, if you can avoid it, your life would be made easier. For instance, we were using it because Gruff (graphing library) required it. We've since ditched that for client-side graphing libraries like g.Raphael, Grafico and/or Google Charts. The result has been much more responsive, dynamic, better looking graphs with a lower RAM footprint for the servers and virtually no installation headaches. Perhaps there's a HTML5 alternative for your image processing needs? Something that uses Canvas? Or SVG / Raphaël? I have literally wasted weeks of my life with various ImageMagick installs over the last few years... it's a pig of a library. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
