Can't Install Rmagick, Pkg-Config: Command Not Found

Can't install rmagick, pkg-config: command not found

Reinstalling pkg-config solved the issue for me.

Unable to install Rmagick

Finally , I downgraded the version of imagemagick to make it working i.e.

brew uninstall imagemagick
brew uninstal imagemagick@6

Then, set the path for MagicWand & MagicCore.h

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick\@6/6.9.7-6/lib/pkgconfig/

Bundle can't install RMagick gem on Mac OSX 10.7

I suggest that you use brew to manage your binary dependencies. You can easily install imageMagick with brew, like this:

brew install imagemagick

This is what I have on my system:

imagemagick 6.7.1-1
http://www.imagemagick.org
Depends on: jpeg, libtiff, little-cms, jasper
/usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/6.7.1-1 (1389 files, 32M)
http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/commits/master/Library/Formula/imagemagick.rb

And I have the same setup as you have in terms of machine and ruby-version.

Can't install RMagick 2.13.1. Can't find MagickWand.h.

I had a similar issue with running

$ gem install rmagick

First of all, do you have imagemagick installed? If you're not sure, run

$ convert --version

If you do, you probably either installed it with fink or macports (maybe homebrew?). What is happening is that rvm can't find the imagemagick directory.

After reading
https://superuser.com/questions/361435/i-have-compiled-imagemagick-on-my-centos-and-rmagick-wont-install
I exported the imagemagick path by adding

$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"

to my ~/.bash_profile, sourcing the new profile, then running:

gem install rmagick

It worked for me after I did this.

rmagick gem install Can't find Magick-config

When building native Ruby gems, sometimes you'll get an error containing "ruby extconf.rb". This is often caused by missing development libraries for the gem you're installing, or even Ruby itself.

Do you have apt installed on your machine? If not, I'd recommend installing it, because it's a quick and easy way to get a lot of development libraries.

If you see people suggest installing "libmagick9-dev", that's an apt package that you'd install with:

$ sudo apt-get install libmagickwand-dev imagemagick

or on centOs:

$ yum install ImageMagick-devel

On Mac OS, you can use Homebrew:

$ brew install imagemagick
