How to install imagemagick binary on CentOS
We all the very traditional way of installing the application on linux machine which is as follows:
# yum install imagemagick
This command will not install the imagemagick on Centos properly. So use following commands for installing the imagemagick on centos
#yum install gcc*
#cd /tmp
# wget ftp://ftp.fifi.org/pub/ImageMagick/ImageMagick-6.6.1-10.tar.gz
# tar xzf ImageMagick-6.6.1-10.tar.gz
# cd ImageMagick-6.6.1-10
# ./configure
# make
# make install
