Description Catherine 2003-02-23 13:37:36 UTC
I found a perl program/script that converts stardock xpcursor themes to an x11
cursor format but it is invoked i get this: 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined
symbol: InitializeMagick

I believe it has something to do with PerlMagick not being installed or
configured properly in the ebuild and the Image::Magick calls dont work or
initialize.  




Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.perl SD2XC-0.0.2.perl
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined
symbol: InitializeMagick


Expected Results:  
it should have converted an xp theme to a x11 cursor theme


My work around for it was to Configure and Install PerlMagick on my own.  My
assumption was that putting perl in the "USE" settings would install PerlMagick
but that doesnt seem to be the case.  A little annoying

there's no official perlmagick in portage tree
Comment 2 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-02-23 16:51:37 UTC
which version ?
Comment 3 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-02-24 12:55:37 UTC
from Catherine:

Current Version:  ImageMagick 5.5.4.4 However I am
sure that it is part of earlier versions as well.  The
PerlMagick is a directory inside of ImageMagick and
gets built at the same time.  In the ebuild there are
some instructions for PerlMagick but I cant understand
what it actually does because when the ebuild is done,
the perl part of ImageMagick is installed but doesnt
work correctly.

Just thought I'd let you know that I *am* working on this, but it's not a fun one. You might be able to get it working as a quick fix by emerging it twice in a row, but I'm not sure. Should be working some time soon.
Comment 5 Graham Forest 2003-03-17 03:46:57 UTC
I moved perlmagick to a seperate ebuild, so emerge sync, emerge imagemagick perlmagick, and everything should work (I just converted a bunch of cursors with that script ^_^ )
