Ah - ok... Thanks for the tip - will give the repositories a shot.

Imagemagick is available in the standard repositories for ubuntu
(remember all ubuntu derivitives share the same base repositories). So
unless you have a good reason to compile from source there is no need.
I am guessing however from that error message you are getting is
because you do not have gcc and base librarys required installed to do
compilation... do: apt-get install build-essential - will fix your
problem.
But so will apt-get install imagemagick
;-)
You may need to add multiverse and universe repositories to your
/etc/sources.list file
i.e:
# Ubuntu community supported packages
# GPG key: 437D05B5
deb http://sg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty universe multiverse
deb http://sg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-updates universe
multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security universe multiverse

Hope this helps
Kind regards

Hi all,
Trying to install Imagemagick on my XUbuntu system.
Tried the following:
1) Downloaded the .gz file - OK
2) Uncompressed the file using gunzip - OK
3) Did a "./configure"
Error message: "C compiler cannot create executables"
Any idea?
