Worked great for me, thank you!

This worked for me awhile back, but recently I tried it on a new machine running Linux Mint 20.3 (based on Ubuntu) and for some reason despite having removed the imagemagick package in the first step, identify --version at the end returned the old version number.

I did some digging and discovered that while magick was loading the new version, there were old versions of identify, convert and mogrify in my /usr/bin directory that were being called whenever I used those commands. The new ones were all in /usr/local/bin.

According to my $PATH, /usr/local/bin should override identical commands in /usr/bin, and I'm not sure why they didn't. But the quick fix was just to sudo rm the versions in /usr/bin.

In case anyone else encounters this...

• Updated to 7.1.0-47
• Added build-essential explicit installation
• Explicitly enabled flif disabled by default
• Tested with wsl ubuntu

• Added few more dependencies for clean machine

• Updated to 7.1.0-51

• Updated to 7.1.0-52

• Updated to 7.1.0-53

• Updated to 7.1.0-54

Nice script. Might want to add git to the list of dependencies at the top of the script though, I was running this on a fresh Mint box and it failed due to lack of git.

Added git. Thank you.

Does anybody know how to properly generate some default configs for imagemagick and where should they go? Without them and installing from source it might be pretty sketchy when you resize big images.

@iskrisis feels like IM repo is proper place for such question

Thank you for this script. Saved me a bunch of time!

I was only having success with AVIF support using imei https://github.com/SoftCreatR/imei on ubuntu 20.0.4

If the make step fails with an error like:

/usr/bin/sed: can't read 1/ImageMagick/MagickCore/libMagickCore-7.Q16HDRI.la: No such file or directory
libtool:   error: '1/ImageMagick/MagickCore/libMagickCore-7.Q16HDRI.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[1]: *** [Makefile:7294: MagickWand/libMagickWand-7.Q16HDRI.la] Error 1

libtool does not work with directories containing spaces. Ensure you compile ImageMagick in a directory such that the full path does not contain a space.
