All your Imagick Install Problem!!

Hello,

So you are having problem installing ImageMagick! Find the errors below and the solution to resolve it, right next to it.

First of all if you are installing the software after December 2011(offcourse ur!!), always always install it from the source stop using the stupid useless(just 4r this case) yum command.
I'll show you how to install the software from the source:

sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

( the above command will install the following tools MAKE SURE TO USE IT WITH CAUTION bison,byacc,cscope,ctags,cvs,diffstat,doxygen,flex,gcc,gcc-c++,gcc-gfortran,gettext,git,indent,intltool,libtool,patch,patchutils,rcs,redhat-rpm-config,rpm-build,subversion,swig,systemtap)

sudo yum install rpmdevtool libtool-ltdl-devel

yum install freetype-devel ghostscript-devel libwmf-devel jasper-devel lcms-devel bzip2-devel librsvg2 librsvg2-devel liblpr-1 liblqr-1-devel libtool-ltdl-devel autotrace-devel

yum -y install gcc automake autoconf libtool make

yum install libtool-ltdl libtool-ltdl-devel freetype freetype-devel fontconfig-devel

wget http://launchpad.net/imagemagick/main/6.7.3-7/+download/ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz

tar -xvf ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz

cd ImageMagick-6.7.3-7

./configure

make

make install

cd ..

wget http://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-3.0.1.tgz

yum install php-pear

yum remove php-pear

yum install php-pear

tar xvf imagick-3.0.1.tgz

cd imagick-3.0.1

yum install ImageMagick-devel

phpize && ./configure --with-imagick=/usr/lib64/php/modules/

make

sudo make install

sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib

/usr/local/bin/convert logo: logo.gif

yum --enablerepo=epel install jasper jasper-libs jasper-devel

pecl install imagick

vi /etc/php.ini          (add "extension=imagick.so" inside the file)

service httpd restart

Please ignore below

1. Login the server :) ... go create a directory, I named it Installation. Go inside it.
cd Installation

wget http://launchpad.net/imagemagick/main/6.7.3-7/+download/ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz
Now the important thing to notice is the version no, ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz, 6.7.3-7 you need to visit the website and download the new version.

2. wget will download the tar file(duh!). U need to extract it
 tar xvfz ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz
cd  ImageMagick-6.7.3-7.tar.gz

3. Run the commands in the following manner
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
Now dont ask I dont want to explain the commands(kid stuff!)

Error's

First:
Cannot find build files at '/usr/lib64/php/build'. Please check your PHP installation.
So resolve this error you need to remove and install new packges:
yum install ImageMagick
yum install php-pear(just to check of you get any conflicts if u do then prceed to the next step)
yum remove php-pear
yum install php-pear

Second:
This command should/will resolve most of the dependency required by ImageMagick
