After countless unsucessfull attempts at installing RMagick, the magick has finally happened!
Thanks to hivelogic’s excellent install script, everything was pretty straightforward this time. However I had to add an extra configuration option that seemed to be causing the RMagick install to fail.
cd ImageMagick-6.2.8
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --without-perlUpdate
Okay, so RMagick installed correctly on intel. But actually trying to do anything with it (or gruff for that matter) fails with uninitialized constant Magick.
Requiring gruff or rmagick doesn’t work… although i can require gruff/base
irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> require 'gruff/base'
=> trueMore on this when I’ve got it working!
