Hi List,
Ok, here's the challenge:
I'm sitting on a mountain of images and daily there are more coming. Now
I need to take all of them and transform them to different sizes, the
smallest will be transparent GIFs. I'd like the write both shell as well
as PHP scripts to manually process those.
I think the ImageMagick library of tools will do the job best. It's at
http://www.simplesystems.org/ImageMagick/
Now my problem. I neither manage to compile it properly (I think it only
compiles right as root, which I don't have. At home, as root on my local
box I got it to work fine) nor do the binaries (686-linux) work for me.
It's complaining that it can't find the proper .so libraries, while I
have added both the bin and lib directories where the binaries and .so
files reside to my environment variables.
Can somebody try to get it to work as a user and point my towards the
"right way" ?
I can't install it as root as I don't have that kind of access and the
Unix-admins are "too busy" and backlogged for weeks. So my request won't
happen anytime soon.
Please help.
