Installing rmagick - failed

Downloaded the latest rmagic, typed in sudo gem install rmagick, and got some failures:

checking for Magick-config... no ... Can't install RMagick 2.9.2. Can't find Magick-config in /usr/local/ bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/ sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin

Anyone have any idea? I want to install on OSX, not super familiar with installing gems.

Thanks!

Do you have imagemagick installed ?(one of the easier ways is to install it via macports)

I'm not sure.. I have no idea. Hhow would I check?

I've tried looking up for a while but can't find anything. Hivelogic has a good tutorial, but none of the zip files are working.

If you don't remember doing it then you almost certainly haven't done it. On a mac I usually install Imagemagick via macports.

When you say none of the zip files are working, what do you mean exactly. Are you getting compile errors?
