well I'm a little confuesd here, and hopefully a linux guru can help me out.

I have installed ImageMagick onto my web server. However, since I don't have xwin installed, it stated that it needed these dependencies:

libICE.so.6 libSM.so.6 libX11.so.6 libXext.so.6
libXt.so.6 libdps.so.1 libdpstk.so.1

So I installed the file with rpm -Fvh file --nodeps which bypasses the dependencies error. EE doesn't see that I have installed IM. What at this point do I need to do to get it running? I don't want to install unnecessary xwin packages on a webserver that only runs command line.

Well, I'm not Linux expert... I have RH9 at home and RH7 on this server but I don't touch them if they are working :) I did install IM on this server from rpm's without problems (no extra dependency commands).

Can you run IM from shell? What does EE server info page say?

No IM won't run from shell. It needs those files.

Which RPMs would be necessary to get those files?

Pekka, thanks for the info. I found what I needed.

For future reference, all I needed to install was XFree86-libs-4.3.0-2.i386.rpm

Thanks.
