The required ImageMagick libraries are not installed or not installed properly. [SOLVED]

thanos1983 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks,

I am trying to install Image::Magick and I have spend way too many hours without any solution.

I have installed perlmagick successfully see bellow:

$ sudo apt-get install perlmagick
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
perlmagick is already the newest version (8:6.8.9.9-7ubuntu5.6).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

But when I am trying to install Image::Magick through CPAN I get these errors:

Does any one faced similar error and know how to resolve it? Is there some reason why you didn't simply `sudo apt-get install libimage-magick-perl` Since you installed `perlmagick` from a package why not go the whole hog?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I wrote a distribution that uses the software, and here's what I did to get the Perl distribution to install: `# download: http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ tar xvfz ImageMagick-6.9.2-4.tar.gz cd ImageMagick-6.9.2-4/ ./configure --with-perl sudo apt-get install libperl-dev make sudo make install cpanm Image::Magick` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Hello stevieb, I tried this approach before I am getting the same error. I also tried with cpanm to install the module same error. :( I have even tried with `./configure --with-perl` from (Make error on PerlMagick 6.8.6).

Re^3: The required ImageMagick libraries are not installed or not installed properly. by zentara (Cardinal) on Apr 11, 2017 at 15:10 UTC
Installing PerlMagick on a Linux OS is as easy as it comes. You said you installed the pre-requisite ImageMagick libs with your package manager, but you probably are missing a libmagick-devel package. I just don't know why so many package managers split the runtime and devel packages. It causes so much confusion. The way I always do it, is manually. No package managers needed. It always works. My approach is similar to stevieb's but a bit different. First, get the latest ImageMagick source tar ball, currently at IM source tar ball . Then tar -xvf ImageMagick.tar.gz. Then cd into the directory and just do ./configure and then "make" , then "sudo make install", or just make install as root. IM will install itself to it's default location in /usr/local and put all the needed files in the proper place. Then as root do a "ldconfig" to make sure the new libraries are loaded. Then download the PerlMagick module from cpan, currently at PerlMagick , unpack it, cd into it, and do "perl Makefile.PL" then "make" then as root "make install". Report back here any errors you encounter. My above procedure is the age-old standard foolproof way of manually installing libs and modules. You can manually install any module you want without the problems associated with package managers. You can install GD by the same procedure, it's just the standard way described in the README's of the libraries.The PerlMagick and ImageMagick module and library are of the highest quality as far as being bugfree. They always compile and install cleanly. Good luck. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. ..... an animated JAPH	[reply]

I normally wouldn't recommend this, but I tried it again on another machine using my above method and the cpan install failed. However, if I use force to install, and the functionality appears to work correctly.	[reply]
