RMagick installation problem

0 comments
Do you get this error when you are trying to install RMagick :
checking for Magick-config... no
Can't install RMagick 2.12.0. Can't find Magick-config in /usr/bin:/bin
  1. And you have installed ImageMagick with version > 6.3.5 from source.
  2. And when you search every where on the internet they tell you to install ImageMagick and ImageMagick-devel from yum.
  3. And when trying to understand why it is not working as Magick-config is available in /usr/local/bin , but RMagick is searching for it in /usr/bin and can't find it.
  4. The solution is to copy Magick-config from /usr/local/bin to /usr/bin , and try to install RMagick again.
