How to install the latest version of ImageMagick?












1















I am trying to install the latest version of ImageMagick.



https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/imagemagick



I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. After I apt-get update, the version of ImageMagick it lists is 6.7.7.10



However, I want to use ImageMagick version 6.8.9.9. Is there a way to install this version with apt-get or some package manager without upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04?

According to http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=29006#p129405, there is a PPA that provides the 6.8.9.9 version of ImageMagick for Ubuntu 14.04 at https://launchpad.net/~isage-dna/+archive/ubuntu/imagick that you can try at your own risk:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:isage-dna/imagick
sudo apt-get update

    If it is already installed via apt-get and the version is old, remove it:



    sudo apt-get remove imagemagick



  2. Create a src directory:



    mkdir ~/src
    cd ~/src



  3. Download version 6.9.10-23 of Imagemagick source:



    wget http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick-6.9.10-23.tar.gz



  4. Install some packages from apt-get that are necessary for compiling from source:



    sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall



  5. Untar source and cd into directory:



    tar xf ImageMagick-6.9.10-23.tar.gz
    cd ImageMagick-6.9.10-23/



  6. Configure, make and checkinstall:



    ./configure
    make
    checkinstall



  7. Update links/bindings:



    ldconfig



  8. Verify and:



    $ identify -version
