[yuvadm]

Installed the usual way (no errors), all gems installed successfully to local ~/.gem then:

$ pacman -Q imagemagick

This is a fully updated Arch Linux system, all gems have also been updated as well.

got the same problem on debian wheezy

[dstapp]

Same Problem with OS X 10.9 & Ruby 2.0.0-p353 installed via RVM.

[yuvadm]

I found some vague mentions of rmagick being unmaintained. Perhaps anotther imagemagick binding library is needed, though I'm really unfamiliar with the ruby ecosystem.

[zookee1]

same problem on ubuntu 12.04. I tried different stuff like "gem uninstall rmagick" => "apt-get install librmagick-ruby", but nothing seems to work. :(

[huydx]

Hi guy, thank you for the report. Rmagick is quite hard to install in variate of systems. @yuvadm it apparently that you're using imagemagick 6.8.9, can you show me your version of rmagick

gem list | grep rmagick

if it exist, can you try

ruby -e "require 'rmagick'"

and see that if any errors.

Imagemagick is only used for view image purpose, which is quite useless in my opinion In the next release I will make imagemagick require optional.

[yuvadm]

@huydx -

$ gem list | grep rmagick
rmagick (2.13.3)
$ ruby -e "require 'rmagick'"

[huydx]

@yuvadm what about ruby -e "require 'RMagick'" with capital

[yuvadm]

@huydx yep that works

. Seems to be an issue related to case sensitivity in the operating system. Anyway, "RMagick" should work for all OSes?!

[huydx]

@yuvadm @dprandzioch yay that's the point. I will fix it in the next release, please hang on guys :+1:

[yuvadm]

@huydx awesome mate, thanks.

[dstapp]

@huydx perfect! looking forward to use your tool ;-)

[huydx]

@yuvadm @dprandzioch I've fixed that in beta version. Can you guys try this version

gem install facy -v 1.2.10.rc1 --pre

and take a look

[yuvadm]

@huydx yep, that seems to work

[huydx]

@yuvadm great, so I've just released the official version 1.2.10
