[Xastir] Installing ImageMagick on RH 8.0 for xastir

[Gerry Creager]

My recommendation, following the advice of a number of folks here, is to 
remove the version you got with 8.0, probably 5.4.7-5, and retrieve all 
the package for RH 7.3 from either RedHat or Freshrpms.net.

Reinstall the ImageMagick-5.4.3.11-1.i386.rpm and 
ImageMagick-devel-5.4.3.11-1.i386.rpm packages.  Drop me a note if RPM 
doesn't want to cooperate, since I've had to fight that battle recently, 
too, in 8.0.  5.4.7-5 is pretty well documented to miss several items 
needed here.

An off-list note might be best if you would like more specific help. 
I'll be glad to try.
