If God hadn't meant for us to tweak our source code, He'd've given us
Microsoft.
Joel,
Don't credit God for this thing. It is of the devil.
What? You thought I thought God meant for us _not_ to tweak our source
code?

From what you posted earlier, it looks like what you'll need to add:

Libraries are more of a C thing than a Perl thing, but it's useful
to know about for compiling extensions, so here goes.
What you see there -ltiff -ljpeg are options that tell the linker to
link against

Fair enough :-)
But still, think about it: do we need to make one of these refinements

Oh, I agree for the most part.
Yes, open-source makes advanced things possible. But does installing
Imagemagick and Perlmagick really need to be in the advanced
category? Took me (a unix newbie, I admit) an awfully long time to get
it working, and I never would have succeeded without access to a
personal expert who had

Well, the original poster had a detailed set of requirements that Fink
cannot easily fulfill - he wanted to use a specific set of libraries

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that your request for help with
PerlMagick was noise. Far from it - that's what

I checked out the various Imager modules at CPAN. But none of them seems

I doubt you'd see much improvement in that case. The same library

I guess you're right. But I'd still like to get Image::Magick working. Will experiment

If all else fails read the instructions
a problem with a module?
Yes. This means there's something wrong with the Image::Magick
compilation. Or there's an outside chance that there's an
Image::Magick bug triggered by something special about your data, but
it's unlikely.

Hi,
This is sorted now. There was a mismatch between my versions of
Image::Magick and Image Magick - a binary I got last week from Marc
Lyanage (http://www.entropy.ch:16080/software/macosx/#imagemagick).
Once I'd worked that out, I downloaded Marc's binary again, installed
it and identify

The script stops before it prints the DEBUG info
