The most recent GraphicsMagick package for Ubuntu is 1.3.18 which dates back to 2013.
The build.sh
script here takes a GraphicsMagick source distribution, configures, builds and packages it.
To build a new packaged version:
- Copy the GraphicsMagick source
.tar.gz
archive to this directory (e.g.GraphicsMagick-1.3.27.tar.gz
) - Run
build.sh
.
To install the packaged version that this script creates, use:
sudo dpkg -i ./graphicsmagick_1.3.27_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
The initial dpkg
command may report missing dependencies, the apt-get
command will ensure those dependencies are satisfied.
NOTE:
- The build script assumes that fpm is installed.
- The build configuration was taken from the 1.3.18 package (the
gm version
command line shows build configuration used). - The dependency list was taken from the 1.3.18 package
