Installing RMagick gem — Can't find MagickWand.h

Question

I am installing the rmagick gem on OSX 10.6.8, using gem install rmagick, and I am getting the following error

    Can\'t install RMagick 2.13.1         


        

Answer 1

The only thing that worked for me on OSX El Capitan (10.11.6) was cloning this repository:

https://github.com/zagros/imagemagick-rmagic-el-captian

And following compile steps for each library described on that github page, but with slight modification.

The imagemagick itself in stuff folder is already compiled and lacks configure script, so I took other image magick from stuff sierra extracted it and compiled, installed and after that gem install rmagick worked.
