Hi,

thanks for your reply jamie

I got rid of everything to do with image magick off my machine and reinstalled it with fink (Unpacking imagemagick (from .../imagemagick_5.5.6-2_darwin-powerpc.deb) ...
Setting up imagemagick (5.5.6-2) ...) DONE
yet still there is no sign of any file called libMagick-5.5.6-Q16.0.dylib (orany similar .dylib file) in sw/lib/ or anywhere else, just the files libmagick.a libmagick.la libmagick++.a libmagick++.la

unless anyone has any quick fix brainwaves on this i think i'm going to leave this one for a while and come back to it when i have a little more time and experience working with unix type things - all this compiling + makefile stuff is new to me - i was a windows only user up 'till last week - this week i have an osx machine and planetCCRMA redhat box!
maybe i shouldn't hope for too much too soon!

thanks

Rob

Hello,

I have used fink to install ImageMagick on OSX 10.2.4 and am trying to install another piece of software (PiDiP) which is dependent on libMagick

when i try and run this software i get this:

dyld: /usr/local/bin/pd can't open library: /usr/local/lib/libMagick-5.5.6-Q16.0.dylib (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

In FinkCommander it shows: current imagemagick 5.5.6-2 so i presume it has installed ok.

any idea why this file isn't anywhere on my computer? (i have done a search)

how can i get this file on my computer?

...well, the first thing I noticed is that dyld is looking in /usr/local/lib for libMagick: this isn't where fink puts it's stuff, it places libraries in "/sw/lib"...the "...-Q16.0..." also seems to indicate a different version of libMagick than the one provided in fink: fink isn't always the most up-to-date, but it is rather dependable...

...also, I assume this is a pre-built version of pidip? If so, then you need to install imagemagick in your usr/local/lib (and probably go ahead and find the actual version that yves' uses)...my recommendation would be to build pidip yourself (and you'll probably have to modify the makefile references for libMagick to point to the fink installed one)...

good luck!
