I am following this document for building the Go Imagick library.
When i ran the following command
go build -tags no_pkgconfig imagick
It throws the following exception :
# imagick
src/imagick/affine_matrix.go:8:29: fatal error: wand/MagickWand.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated
Now to resolve that i have also installed the following packages as many people suggested to resolve the error. But it didn't work either.
sudo apt-get install libmagickwand-dev libmagickcore-dev imagemagick
Moreover, when i run go build imagick
It throws the following error :
# imagick
could not determine kind of name for C.FlattenAlphaChannel
could not determine kind of name for C.RemoveAlphaChannel
Output of pkg-config --cflags --libs MagickWand gives the correct output
-fopenmp -I/usr/include/ImageMagick -lMagickWand -lMagickCore
ImageMagick is installed to this path(/usr/include/ImageMagick) only.
As mentioned on #68 of the issue tracker, you are using way too old of a version of ImageMagick, which predates the versions that were tested for the master branch. Your Linux distro is older than the current available stable release.
You should manually install a newer ImageMagick, and remove the, one from apt. Or use some solution that allows you to manage multiple versions.
