title: Image::Magick on Strawberry Perl 5.12
body: <p>I am trying to install <code>Image::Magick</code> on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawberry_Perl" rel="nofollow">Strawberry Perl</a> 5.12 on Windows XP, but it doesn't find the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ImageMagick" rel="nofollow">ImageMagick</a> modules when it generates the makefile. The make also throws lots of compiler errors.</p>
  
  <p>I did exactly what is written in the readme of <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~jcristy/PerlMagick-6.89-1/Magick.pm" rel="nofollow">Image::Magic</a>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Installation - Win32 Strawberry perl
  
      On Win32 Strawberry Perl the preferred way of installing PerlMagick is the
      following:
  
      1) Download and install ImageMagick Windows binaries from
      http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows
  
      2) You HAVE TO choose dynamic (DLL) ImageMagick binaries.  Note: it is not
      possible to mix 32/64bit binaries of Perl and ImageMagick
  
      3) During installation select that you want to install ImageMagick's
      development files (libraries+headers)
  
      4) You NEED TO have ImageMagick's directory in your PATH.  Note: we are
      checking the presence of convert.exe or identify.exe tools
  
      5) You might need Visual C++ Redistributable Package installed on your
      system. See instructions on ImageMagick's Binary Release webpage.
  
      6) If you have all prerequisites 1)...5) you can simply install
      ImageMagick by running: cpan -i Image::Magick

  <p>And I am getting this:</p>
