I've installed php5 @5.2.5 and ImageMagick @6.3.9 with MacPorts 1.6 on Leopard. I then wanted to install the PHP wrapper for ImageMagick, namely iMagick. Since iMagick is not a port, I decided to follow recommendations and use
pecl install imagick
or rather, to avoid any confusion
sudo /opt/local/bin/pecl install imagick
The installation begin but always ends in the following error: checking ImageMagick MagickWand API configuration program... configure: error: not found. Please provide a path to MagickWand- config or Wand-config program. After a lot of frutiless googling, I figured that the paths were the problem, I decided on a different approach and adapted the install instructions from the iMagic package to account for the MacPorts paths, thus:
cd /Users/elisevanlooij/Downloads/imagick-2.1.1/imagick-2.1.1 sudo /opt/local/bin/phpize && ./configure --with-imagick=/opt/local && make && make install
This resulted in the hope-giving message: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Libraries have been installed in: /Users/elisevanlooij/Downloads/imagick-2.1.1/imagick-2.1.1/modules If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to the `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Build complete. Don't forget to run 'make test'.

There is indeed a document named imagick.so, but it's in my download folder /Users/elisevanlooij/Downloads/imagick-2.1.1/imagick-2.1.1/modules/ imagick.so which I don't think is a good location, Should I move imagick.so and if so, where and how? The PHP extension_dir is set to ./ Any help would be appreciated. Elise van Looij
