From: Axel Etzold Date: 2008-04-28T19:22:00+09:00 Subject: RMagick installation problems Dear all, I am having trouble installing/using RMagick on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10) Linux. I tried various ways, and finally managed to get the installation process to complete "successfully" for the RMagick gem 2.3.0, after installing both ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick via the apt-get install process, along with several of the prerequisite libraries for the various graphics formats. When trying some examples, (like the cropping example on the transformation page), I get this error: $ruby rone.rb /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-2.3.0/lib/RMagick2.so: /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-2.3.0/lib/RMagick2.so: undefined symbol: SketchImage - /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-2.3.0/lib/RMagick2.so (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:32:in `require' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-2.3.0/lib/RMagick.rb:11 from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:32:in `gem_original_require' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:32:in `require' from rone.rb:2 Now, I've read in the documentation that apparently, some other library libMagickGraphicsWand.so is sought. It's there, it's found, but Rmagick still won't work ... #ldconfig -p | grep Magick libMagick.so.10 (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libMagick.so.10 libMagick.so.9 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libMagick.so.9 libMagick.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libMagick.so libMagick.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/libMagick.so libMagick++.so.10 (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libMagick++.so.10 libMagick++.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libMagick++.so libGraphicsMagickWand.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libGraphicsMagickWand.so.0 libGraphicsMagick.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libGraphicsMagick.so.1 What can I do ? Thank you very much, Axel -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger geh�rt? Der kann`s mit allen: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/multimessenger
