ImageMagick PNG delegate install problems












10















Ubuntu 14.04:



I've downloaded the latest imagemagick source and installed, using option below to configure:



root@usve59445:~/im/ImageMagick-6.9.3-7# ./configure --enable-shared --with-png=yes


After installation however, I have zero items in my built-in list of delegates:



root@usve59445:~/im/ImageMagick-6.9.3-7# identify -version

Delegates (built-in):


Issue I am getting is 'no delegate for format PNG found' when doing a convert command.



I installed the libpng delegate from: http://www.imagemagick.org/download/delegates/



Extracted the libpng1621.tar.gz into its own folder, then:
Ran configure, make, make install (no error messages)



Now when I try and recompile imagemagick, it still says ' Checking for PNG ... no' and --with-png value has 'no' (even though I configure it with --with-png=yes ).



Not sure what I am doing wrong?



Trying to recompile IM using:



root@usve59445:~/im/ImageMagick-6.9.3-7# ./configure --enable-shared=yes --with-png=yes LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib' LIBS=-lpng16



(I think I am using the correct LDFLAGS, but not sure)

  • Installed libpng via this also: apt-get install libpng12-0 - Still getting same checking PNG ... no (no delegate found). Installed libjpeg62 via apt-get, did a recompile of IM and it appears successfully in the delegates list - just PNG does not work!!

  • You have to install the -dev packages (libpng12-dev, perhaps), for building software with a library.

  • Hi muru, thanks already did that, not working. Trying to use the --x-libraries option like this guy did: stackoverflow.com/questions/28237800/… But 'locate libpng' gives me a lot of different locations (added to question above), not sure which one I should use? (have tried a few, none of which seem to get PNG compiled into IM).

  • Installed libpng via this also: apt-get install libpng12-0 - Still getting same checking PNG ... no (no delegate found). Installed libjpeg62 via apt-get, did a recompile of IM and it appears successfully in the delegates list - just PNG does not work!!

  • Hi muru, thanks already did that, not working. Trying to use the --x-libraries option like this guy did: stackoverflow.com/questions/28237800/… But 'locate libpng' gives me a lot of different locations (added to question above), not sure which one I should use? (have tried a few, none of which seem to get PNG compiled into IM).

You are making things a little too hard for yourself, here is a quick and dirty guide that ran well for me on Trusty Tahr:



First pick up a few known dependencies:



sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall 
libx11-dev libxext-dev zlib1g-dev libpng12-dev
libjpeg-dev libfreetype6-dev libxml2-dev


This does not quite catch everything so activate the Source repositories by clicking on 'Souce Code' here:



Dash >> Software & Updates >> Source Code


and then running the following:



sudo apt-get build-dep imagemagick


Create a build folder and change to it:



mkdir $HOME/imagemagick_build && cd $HOME/imagemagick_build


And finally download, extract, compile and install by simply copying and pasting the entire code box below into a Terminal window:



wget https://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick-7.0.8-28.tar.bz2 && 
tar xvf ImageMagick-7.0.8-28.tar.bz2 && cd ImageMagick-7.0.8-28 && ./configure && make &&
sudo checkinstall -D --install=yes --fstrans=no --pakdir "$HOME/imagemagick_build"
--pkgname imagemagick --backup=no --deldoc=yes --deldesc=yes --delspec=yes --default
--pkgversion "7.0.8-28" &&
make distclean && sudo ldconfig


And finally test this, looking especially for the png you are missing in your own install:



andrew@corinth:~$ identify -version
Version: ImageMagick 7.0.5-10 Q16 x86_64 2017-06-05 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2017 ImageMagick Studio LLC
License: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/license.php
Features: Cipher DPC OpenMP
Delegates (built-in): bzlib djvu fftw fontconfig freetype jbig jng jpeg lcms lqr lzma openexr pangocairo png tiff wmf x xml zlib
andrew@corinth:~$


And there is the png option you were missing :).
