When using the perl module included with ImageMagick(perlmagick), it crashes with: perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined symbol: InitializeMagick I attempted to compile the package by hand: Step 1: untar ImageMagick-6.2.2-3.tar.bz2 from distfiles Step 2: default ./configure only adding CFLAGS="-O3 -march=k8 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" Step 3: compile Step 4: enter in the PerlMagick subdirectory Step 5: examine the Makefile.PL per the Readme.txt, which says to change the LIBS value in Makefile.PL by hand Step 6: delete some weird looking lib entries from LIBS (--rpath and -Wl,) LIBS before: 'LIBS' => ['-L/usr/local/lib -lMagick -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib64 -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/lib64 -lfreetype -lz -L/usr/lib -ltiff -lfree type -ljpeg -lpng -ldpstk -ldps -lXext -lXt -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lbz2 -lxml2 -lz -lpthread -lm -lpthread'], LIBS after: 'LIBS' => ['-L/usr/local/lib -lMagick -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib64 -lfreetype -lz -L/usr/lib -ltiff -lfreetype -ljpeg -lpng -ldpstk -ldps -lXext -lXt -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lbz2 -lxml2 -lz -lpthread -lm -lpthread'], Step 7: perl Makefile.PL Step 8: make Step 9: make test(fails a bunch because it wants gs(ghostscript) which i don't have Step 10: make install (notice it installs by default to /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so instead of /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so Step 11: rename the broken /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so to get it out of the way Step 12: Success.

That error is indicative of problems we were having when they were separate packages but imagemagick was still building a bad perl module and dropping it in site_perl. Can you grep perl from the CONTENTS file in /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/imagemagick*/ for me? Also - did you have a previous copy of either imagemagick or perlmagick installed?
Here is the grep requested by mcummings: grep perl /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/imagemagick*/CONTENTS obj /usr/share/doc/ImageMagick-6.2.2/www/perl-magick.html 70f4c8fc71238fc44764ce7ace64815c 1116346639 dir /usr/share/perl dir /usr/share/perl/gentoo-pods dir /usr/share/perl/gentoo-pods/5.8.5 obj /usr/share/perl/gentoo-pods/5.8.5/imagemagick-6.2.2.3.pod 64596b0254533798358b8df63986a663 1116346639 obj /usr/share/perl/gentoo-pods/5.8.5/imagemagick-6.2.2.3.pod.arch 64596b0254533798358b8df63986a663 1116346639 dir /usr/lib/perl5 dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5 dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick obj /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so 8e8fec9c569dde9466a065b348ecce3e 1116346639 obj /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.bs d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e 1116346639 obj /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/autosplit.ix 42945b7885e4d88de21d315d4b173b73 1116346639 obj /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/auto/Image/Magick/.packlist f7b4e865b51ad31f19719d7046da0098 1116346639 dir /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/Image obj /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux/Image/Magick.pm a462b2f0b4c82eb49495c5c5f5233a58 1116346639 dir /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5 dir /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/x86_64-linux This is from a new amd64 gentoo install from stage3 as of May 16,2005, with a fresh portage tree. Neither imagemagick nor perlmagick(perlmagick was not even in the portage tree) was previously installed.
Adding the amd64 team to this since for now this seems specific to that arch (no reported problems on other arch's and I can't dup this on my x86 or sparc). amd64 folks - can you confirm this bug? Thanks! Lars - thanks :) When perlmagick was in the tree, that error would pop up due to a problem in the imagemagick ebuild building the perl support, then perlmagick installing separately and getting all confused on which .so to load (obviously not the case here).
Bug confirmed in amd64 :) removing from CC
I have this same problem on a x86 system. A Perl cgi script uses Image::Magick, and a perl -c of the script yields: -- perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined symbol: InitializeMagick -- This system was installed using the x86 stage1 install roughly 3 weeks ago.

Now that I (sadly) have a fresh 2005.0 install, I can dup this bug. I'm working it.
Graphics folks (Karol in particular) - I'd welcome some input on how to handle this without re-invoking the split of perlmagick. Here's where I'm at: Perlmagick is only building correctly if imagemagick is already on the live system (you can get this out of the README under the perlmagick, but I've struggled not to believe them tonight). I've tried every trick I can think of and the only one that has worked so far is if I push the building of the perl module into pkg_postinst() - which pretty much defeats the purpose of having this build in a sandbox, drops the ability to track and/or remove perlmagick on an unmerge, and basically means we've only saved a few hassles from just splitting it out again. Maybe I'm just not grokking a way of stripping out the /var/tmp/* portions of a shared object? In my defense, when I first tested this merger of the two ebuilds, it was a few imagemagick versions ago (6.2.1.5) - I/perl herd wasn't asked to test it on subsequent releases, so we didn't, and I'd swear I tried every variation of an install with the early <=6.2.1.5 to verify it would work. At this point though I can't be certain of that - don't know how I would have missed this behaviour (to dup, unmerge all of imagemagick, re-merge, and try the perlmagick portions)
Fixed in 6.2.2.3-r1 ebuild. Thanks for help.
