[cobalt-users] RaQ4 ImageMagick again - find JPEG libraries?



I am attempting to install ImageMagick on a RaQ4i. I really don't know a
tremendous amount about configuring, compiling, and installing software, so
if I have to venture far from the config defaults I get lost pretty quickly
(as you'll soon see!). I'm asking this on the cobalt-users list instead of
the ImageMagick list because I think this could be a RaQ specific config
issue.

I only need "convert" from ImageMagick, but couldn't find a way to get
convert without having to install the whole deal, so I got ImageMagick-5.4.1
from ftp.imagemagick.org.

Quickly realized I needed JPEG support, so downloaded jpegsrc-vb6.tar.gz and
installed, went fine.

The following files are now located in /usr/local/bin:

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        86607 Jan 20 13:23 cjpeg
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root       102472 Jan 20 13:23 djpeg
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        96488 Jan 20 13:23 jpegtran
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        16045 Jan 20 13:23 rdjpgcom
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root        17350 Jan 20 13:23 wrjpgcom

So now I think I've installed JPG support. I get ImageMagick unzipped and
attempt to run configure, but no dice on the JPEG support. The ImageMagick
README says to delete the config.cache file before running config again, but
there is no such file that I can find. I run it again anyway, this time with
the following option:

./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/bin -prefix=/usr/local

but no joy. Following a suggestion on the list,

http://list.cobalt.com/pipermail/cobalt-users/2001-June/045883.html

I added /usr/local/bin to the ld.so.conf file (whatever that is), and ran
config again, still no joy.

I am at the limit of what I can do. There's talk in the docs of headers and
libraries and such, but I don't know anything about those. If anyone has any
ideas how to point the ImageMagick at the proper files for JPEG support, I'd
be really grateful.

Thanks,

Brandon
