The Definition of Sucks - Installing Rmagick on Mac OS X
October 25, 2007
As part of the TipDish project, we needed to use Rmagick to manipulate avatars.
I was real sad to see it required 6+ pages of install instructions for OS X. The Windows install is MUCH simpler.
I was ready to pay someone to install it for me.
But I decided to just plod through the instructions.
Luckily I had installed the X Windows software earlier in the year, so that cut down on the install time.
It must have taken 2 hours to install. Luckily there was an exciting World Series Game on to ease the pain.
I’m still not sure if I have everything configured correctly. The Rails app appears to work now.
