SUBJECT: Installing RMagick on Mac OS 10.5.1

 

I successfully installed rmagick on my Mac OS X v10.5.1 machine using fink for the native libraries. The steps I took were a modification of:

I ended up doing just the following 3 commands and it worked:
%> sudo fink install ghostscript imagemagick imagemagick10-dev
%> export LIBRARY_PATH='/sw/lib'
%> sudo gem install rmagick

Notice I had fewer steps... they others seemed unnecessary and I was right. I tested the installation using your docs on installation verification to ensure I did it correctly.
