sudo apt-get install imagemagick

Doesn't seem to work for me :/

@jcklpe
This is 4 years old and I haven't used it since then, do you have imagemagick installed?

@guillhermeBarile

Yup. Looking around though I think this might be because a new install of Ubuntu 12 and up has a slightly different syntax for setting getconf settings. That's what my understanding from reading around was. I can't actually say that for sure but from my googling it looks to be that issue.

I found a ppa package maintained by a guy that others say works but doesn't work for me.

It could not work for me because I ran this script beforehand. I think I have properly reset stuff though so not really sure what's up.
