Hi,

Thanks I was able to compile from sources now and everythings works fine.
I just get the following message:

> library(EBImage)
Le chargement a ncessit le package : abind
Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display "/tmp/launch-1igmhB/:0".

By the way, do you know how to change from French to English?

Thanks,

Bernd

Hi Bernd,

If you have the libraries ImageMagick (6.5.1-0) and gtk2 (2.16.1) 
installed with MacPort then the following shell commands,
- 'display --version'
- 'gtk-demo'
should work (testing ImageMagick and GTK+).

Just download the *source* package of EBImage here:
http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.4/bioc/html/EBImage.html
and install it using 'R CMD INSTALL EBImage_3.0.0.tar.gz'.
That's it and EBImage should work fine.

I suspect you did something wrong because MacPort installs libraries in 
/opt/local/lib (and not in /usr/lib) so maybe you were trying to install 
the Mac binary package of EBImage which seems to use 
/usr/local/lib/libMagick.10.dylib. But the name of the ImageMagick 
library has changed since... (it is now called libMagickCore, explaining 
why you can't find it on your system).

If it doesn't work, could you please give me all your details with 
sessioInfo() and the output of the following commands:
- 'otool -L src/EBImage.so'
- 'Magick-config --libs'
- 'pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs'

Best regards,

Greg
