Hi Group, I am trying to install the EBImage package on my linux box. I have the latest version of Red Hat Linux, GTK 2.10.4 and Image magick. The error which I get is as follows...Could anyone give me an idea what I am doing wrong? Please find the error message and session info below. I have already read an earlier post regarding the same issue (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2009-July/028666.html) and seen the response but I using latest version anyway. Thanks in advance.

Dear Jayangshu what happens when you type "Magick-config" in the command line? It appears that it is not installed, or if it is installed, that PATH and/or other environment variables are not set. If this sounds confusing to you, then perhaps you would best consult a Linux administrator. Please do follow the installation instructions in the PDF file that comes with the EBImage package. They are there for a reason. Btw, it is not advisable to run R CMD INSTALL as 'root' user. Better to create a user-id with restricted rights that can install R and R packages.
