NAME

Alien::ImageMagick - cpanm compatible Image::Magick packaging.

VERSION

Version 0.09

DESCRIPTION

This package's purpose is to make the installation of the official Image Magick library and Perl interface compatible with cpanm ( https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/App-cpanminus/bin/cpanm ) and perlbrew ( https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/App-perlbrew/bin/perlbrew ).

Installing it will download and install the freshest image magick library and Perl interface from the official Image magick website ( See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php ) in a way that is compatible with perlbrew and/or cpanm.

If you use cpanm or perlbrew, this will not conflict with your system's Image Magick installation.

INSTALLATION
