Hi all,

I got the following error when trying to use Image::Magick in perl:

/usr/bin/perl: relocation error: 
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined 
symbol: InitializeMagick

Upon investigation it seems that the perl library (Magick.so) was not 
linked to libMagick.so!

The only way I could fix this was to uninstall ImageMagick-perl and 
rebuild from the source rpm. Then I installed this new ImageMagick-perl 
rpm and everything was fine.

Thought that this might save others some time!

The system in question is a SL3.0.7 x86_64 box.

Cheers,
Rob
