WebMagick requires that a few packages be installed:
bullet GNU Autotools
bulletPERL 5 (5.003 or later)
bulletImageMagick (3.8.4 or later)
bulletPerlMagick (1.12 or later) (included in most current ImageMagick distributions)
bullet optional Sort::Naturally


The best results will be obtained by installing the latest version of these packages. Many improvements have been added to the ImageMagick and PerlMagick packages as a result of the WebMagick experience.

Obtain PERL version 5 from the PERL Language Home Page. Install PERL according to its installation instructions.

Obtain ImageMagick from the ImageMagick distribution site. Install ImageMagick according to the excellent instructions in the INSTALL file. If you don't read the instructions, you will be sorry that you installed ImageMagick at all because you will miss out on useful things like JPEG, TIFF, and Postscript support.

PerlMagick is included in most current distributions of ImageMagick. Follow the instructions in the ImageMagick INSTALL file if it is not installed by default. Note that PerlMagick is NOT included in the current Mandrake Linux ImageMagick RPM, but it is included in the Mandrake distribution as perl-Magick. 

Then run:

./bootstrap
./configure
make
make install
