<!-- Editors: It is highly unlikely that the buildsize (disk space used) will
     be less than the figure shown above. Unless you have installed *all* the
     delegate dependencies, you will see a smaller buildsize, but what is
     currently listed above is the space one would require if all the
     dependencies available in the book are installed.

     [pierre 2017-02-14]] For a build of 6.9.7-8 with dependencies available in
     the book, but with the configure command as below, I got 179 MB (2.3 SBU)
     (and 472 KB (0.8 SBU) for the validation suite).

     For a non-full build of 6.9.3-8 I got an actual space of 173 MB and running
     the validation suite does not increase the net space. I recommend running
     that instead of check (after the install)!

     Following comments preserved from when we did a full install of -6.

     Marked as 'typical' because nobody builds ALL the optional extras [ken]

     [bdubbs] I do; at least the internal ones.  I still got only 200 MB.

     Saved the "full" 450MB as a comment - feel free to update this iff you
     do build all dependencies, it's probably a lot bigger now.

     [bdubbs] Just removed it.  I don't think it adds anything.

     Also, please look over the output from the configure command for any
     additional dependencies that need to be listed, as ImageMagick is
     constantly adding additional features and dependencies.

     For those of us who touch this infrequently:
     DPS/dpsXclient is from apple so not relevant to linux builds
     GVC is part of Graphviz and documented in the explanations
     LQR is Liquid Rescale  -->

      <application>ImageMagick</application> underwent many changes in its
      libraries between versions 6 and 7. Most packages in BLFS which use
      <application>ImageMagick</application> can use version 7, but for the
      others this page will install only the libraries, headers and general
      documentation (not programs, manpages, perl modules), and it will
      rename the unversioned pkgconfig files so that they do not overwrite the
      same-named files from version 7.

      The optional dependencies listed below should be installed if you need
      support for the specific format or the conversion tool the dependency
      provides. Many of the dependencies' capabilities and uses are described in
      the <quote>MAGICK DELEGATES</quote> section of the
      <filename>README.txt</filename> file located in the source tree.
      Additional information about the dependencies can be found in the

      well as issuing the <command>./configure --help</command> command. A

    </para>

<screen role="root"><userinput>make DOCUMENTATION_PATH=/usr/share/doc/imagemagick-&imagemagick6-version; install-libs-only</userinput></screen>

    <para>
      To test the installation, issue: <command>make check</command>. A more
      comprehensive test is the <application>ImageMagick</application>
      validation suite. If <command>make check</command> has not been executed,
      run <command>make tests/validate</command> to compile it.  Issue
      <command>tests/validate 2>&amp;1 | tee validate.log</command> to run the
      validation suite. The result summary may be obtained with <command>grep
      "validation suite" validate.log</command>. Note that the EPS, PS, and PDF
      tests require a working <application>Ghostscript</application>. One test
      in 'make check' needs <quote>Helvetica</quote> from <quote>Ghostscript
      Standard Fonts</quote>, which are optionally installed in
      <xref linkend="gs"/> - that test, and one other, might fail, but all the
      validation can still pass.
