It doesn't look like that "magicdev" is actually the "development package"
corresponding to ImageMagick.  That's probably why things are failing.

You probably want something more like "ImageMagick-devel".

I don't think INSTALL is very clear on that, but that's probably because the
package management of various linux distros is so different you can't document
everything that it takes to get all linuxen working.  I think most of the
developers probably install from sources rather than pakages, so some of the
documentation might be lacking in its descriptions of what binary packages
to install anyway.

What Linux are you using?  (sounds like RedHat) Perhaps someone else who uses 
that system can tell you the exact package names you need.
