When I run the ld command against those three ImageMagick libraries, I see the following: ld /usr/lib/libMagick++.so ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address ld /usr/lib/libMagickWand.so ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address ld /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathStart' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetViewbox' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetFont' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPopPattern' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetFillPatternURL' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeDashArray' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawAllocateWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PushDrawingWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathClose' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetRedQuantum' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawScale' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetTextUnderColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawLine' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PopDrawingWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DestroyPixelWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetFontSize' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawTranslate' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathMoveToAbsolute' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawAnnotation' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeAntialias' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPushDefs' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathFinish' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DestroyMagickWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawRoundRectangle' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPopDefs' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetQuantumColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetFillColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawComposite' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetClipPath' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawRender' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawEllipse' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawComment' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathLineToAbsolute' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetBlueQuantum' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeLineJoin' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPushPattern' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetColor' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPushClipPath' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeLineCap' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawArc' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `NewMagickWandFromImage' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetOpacityQuantum' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPopClipPath' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetClipRule' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `NewPixelWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawRotate' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawRectangle' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DestroyDrawingWand' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokeWidth' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawPathEllipticArcAbsolute' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `DrawSetStrokePatternURL' /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so: undefined reference to `PixelSetGreenQuantum' I'm thinking the problem is not how koffice links to ImageMagick, but ImageMagick itself. I grabbed the sources for ImageMagick-6.5.3-3, which is the version that came with Slackware 13.0. (I had to add a patch to force using libpng12 rather than libpng14.) I rebuilt the package and ran the ld command against all three libraries. No 'undefined reference' errors. Something changed between 6.5.3-3 and 6.5.9-6. Something in 6.5.9-6 does not build correctly. Any ideas what? Something in the config options? Compiler flags? My searching the web revealed nothing. Darrell
