unable to install a patched version of GraphicsMagick 1.3.25 on Redhat 6.8

After successfully applying the patch to GraphicsMagick using gnu "patch" i do a configure, make , make install , and use fpm to create the rpm, which i install on a clean VM, but getting error:

$gm -version gm: error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

build steps:

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-modules=yes --with-png --with-tiff --with-jpeg --with-gslib=/usr/local/share/ghostscript/9.20/lib --enable-shared=no --enable-static=no

make

make DESTDIR=/home/ec2-user/GM/tmp/project/ install

fpm -s dir -t rpm -C tmp/project --name GraphicsMagick --version 1.3.25 --iteration 4 --description "GraphicsMagick 1.3.25 on redhat 6.8" .

then, scp the rpm to another clean VM and install it as:

sudo rpm -ivh GraphicsMagick-1.3.25-4.x86_64.rpm

Also, do I also need to build all the required libs like tiff, png jpeg?

which also makes me want to ask: Does GraphicsMagick 1.3.25 support libtiff 4.0.7 ?

Solution

  • If you built this on rhel/centos 6, it is transportable via this method to another rhel/centos 6 box. You problem is probably dependencies, correctly using fpm's '-d' flag repetitively, and install with yum (not rpm).

    Use rpm -q --whatprovides on your build box to back track and figure out what rpm's provide that library. Example:

    rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2
libxml2-2.7.6-21.el6_8.1.x86_64

    So I know that I should have added -d libxml2 to my fpm line

    Then do that again for all those image library dependencies.
