Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Hello Developers,

I have some questions about the binary build for MacOS 10.7 and 10.8.:
- Is there some reason that they lack of JPEG/TIFF support? (in configuration.xml is no -ljpeg entry and there is no jpeg.la|.so in dir 'coders')
- Is there a place where I can download other (legacy) binary builds than the one for most recent Mac OS version?
- Am I really the only user who is bothered that there is no jpeg support in MacOS binary build , because I did not find any current post about this or did I somehow manage to do something wrong during 'installation' (untar, export MAGICK_HOME, PATH and LD_LIBS ...) ?

Thank you for your answers.

To see if the binary really has jpg support, type

convert -list configure | grep -i "delegates"

It should be there in the binary with png, tiff and other basic delegates.

If not, then report this on the bugs forum.

Note that the current Mac binary is for Mountain Lion only. For older versions, I think you would need to install from source or use MacPorts.

The binary package for MacOS (ImageMagick-x86_64-apple-darwin11.4.0.tar.gz) did definitely not contain support for jpg and tiff. DELEGATES reads as follows:
bzlib png x11 xml zlib
I'll check for Mountain Lion.

Ok, checked also for "ImageMagick-x86_64-apple-darwin12.1.0.tar.gz".
"configuration.xml" reads:
<configure name="DELEGATES" value="bzlib freetype png x11 xml zlib"/>

BTW: for both mentioned versions the command
convert -list configure
returns
convert: unable to access configure file `configure.xml' @ warning/configure.c/GetConfigureOptions/591.
So I just read the $MAGICK_HOME/lib/ImageMagick-6.7.9/config/configure.xml file.

The command
identify -list format
does not return JPG/JPEG or TIFF either.

Thanks so far.

It would appear to be a problem with the binary builds as reported here also viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21862

But it is troubling that you cannot get any response at a terminal from convert -list configure.
