RMagick

[Rong]

I installed the ImageMagick binary but when I try to install RMagick
(gem) I get the foloowing error-
/usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb install rmagick
checking for Ruby version >= 1.8.2... yes
checking for gcc... yes
checking for Magick-config... no
Can't install RMagick 2.9.1. Can't find Magick-config in /usr/local/
bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/
X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin

*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.

What do I need to do?

Install the headers for ImageMagick. If you're using a distro with a
package manager, it will probably end in -dev.

Ok, I just looked in the Ubuntu 8.10 manager and you want something
along the lines of libgraphicsmagick1-dev

But that's just a guess, I don't know exactly. However, if you're using
Ubuntu you can just use synaptic to install rmagick and save yourself a
bunch of hassle

I have fixed the problem above. I am running os x 10.5.6.
I am now getting a different error.

stdint.h is part of the C library. This should be installed along with
a C compiler. Please tell me you're not trying to compile a C extension

Oh sorry, I was a little blind there. So have you checked to see
whether /usr/include/stdint.h exists?

What does the mkmf.log file have to say?

Don't know where it is.

I am running Ruby 1.9.1. Does that matter?

I found it.
Here is the line(s) referenced.

GCC is installed.

Have you tried either the osx installer from rubyforge (automated
build from source: http://is.gd/l6pP ), or have you built the whole
shebang from scratch yourself using http://is.gd/glSd

I followed the second procedure myself with few problems.

Cheers--

[rmagick]

Don't know where it is.

Yes. At the end of the os x install instructions are 3 test commands
that all work perfectly.

RMagick works just fine with 1.9.1. I'm waiting for the O.P. to show his
mkmf.log.

This can't be all of it. It doesn't include the failure you described in
your post:

checking for stdint.h... *** extconf.rb failed ***

Why don't you start over and post the output from "gem install" and then
mkmf.log? Also, where did you get the XCode Tools (install disk?
download?), how did you install ImageMagick, and what's the output from

gcc --version
