HOWTO

# ImageMagick
# ===========
# Slackware 13.37: imagemagick 6.6.6_10
# Slackware 14.0: imagemagick 6.7.7_10
# Slackware 14.1: imagemagick 6.8.6_10
# Slackware 14.2: imagemagick 6.9.4_9

# I include two different major versions of ImageMagick.  The latest 7.x
# and the latest 6.x - which I need because PHP's PECL imagick:
# https://pecl.php.net/package/imagick
# ...has not been updated since 2017-02 and does not appear to support
# ImageMagick 7.x, which was not yet released at the time.
#
# There is a separate HOWTO for PHP imagick

# A 'make uninstall' (as root) in the source dir of any old installed
# versions of ImageMagick might be a good idea.  If you skip down to the
# bottom, it covers that and manual removal of various things too just
# in case.  It is no longer handled before 'make install' is run as was
# the case in previous revisions of this HOWTO.
#
# If you can't remove all installed ImageMagick files before installing
# the new version below, running "locate [Mm]agick" and
# "lsof /usr/local/lib*/libMagick*" may help to find what is old and
# removable.

# Prerequisites:
# pkg-config
# XFree86 or X.org (optional)
# zlib
# bzip2
# graphviz
# libfpx
# lcms
# libpng
# libjpeg
# JasPer
# freetype
# libtiff
# JBIG-KIT
# libxml
# libwmf
# ghostscript - I use this one
# Netscape (optional)
# teTeX or TeX Live
# xterm (included as part of X)
# transfig's fig2dev
# netpbm
# lpr or cups
# compress/uncompress
# The Gimp
# groff
# sane's scanimage
# enscript
# wget
# gzip
# Perl
# libexif
# ...and lots more, most of which are optional (including X).  For details
# about other prereqs, see the MAGICK DELEGATES section of the README.txt file
