Trouble Building IM 6.3.8-4 from source (on Mac OS X Tiger)

Hello,

I was just trying to build the latest source presumably IM 6.3.8-4 as that is what you are showing as the binary, now. I downloaded the source from
http://www.imagemagick.org/download/www ... .html#unix
and did the following configure which includes lqr:


./configure --enable-delegate-build --enable-shared --disable-static \
--with-modules --with-quantum-depth=16 --without-wmf \
--enable-libtool-verbose --disable-dependency-tracking \
--with-gs-font-dir=/usr/local/share/ghostscript/fonts/ --with-lqr

I am on Mac OS X Tiger.

The configure went fine. But I am getting an error message on doing the make. This is what I got at the end of the terminal message:

ld: warning -L: directory name (/usr/local/lib/lqr-1) does not exist
ld: Undefined symbols:
_lt__argz_append
_lt__argz_create_sep
_lt__argz_insert
_lt__argz_next
_lt__argz_stringify
/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed
make[1]: *** [magick/libMagick.la] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2


Note that in the first line it is looking for lqr-1 (in /usr/local/), but I have no such file there. But there are several files in /usr/local/ such as:

liblqr-1.0.0.0.dylib
liblqr-1.0.dylib
liblqr-1.dylib
liblqr-1.la


Note they all start with liblqr and not lqr.

Is this an error in how the make is set up? Is it looking for the wrong file names?

A couple of weeks ago, with Cristy's help I got lqr and IM 6.3.8-3 beta built just fine .

Thanks fo your help.

Download ImageMagick 6.3.8-5 and let us know if you have any problems building under Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5.

Thanks. It works fine now with IM 6.3.8-5. No errors about lqr files and I tested -liquid-rescale and it works as before.
