I tried to install ImageMagick 7 by IMEI from github:

https://github.com/SoftCreatR/imei/

but always had this answer:

   Signature verification failed!

Please check /var/log/imei.log for details.

and in imei.log:

./imei.sh: line 283: : No such file or directory
./imei.sh: line 286: : No such file or directory
Can't open  for reading, No such file or directory
140131941683840:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory:../crypto/bio/bss_file.c:69:fopen('','r')
140131941683840:error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file:../crypto/bio/bss_file.c:76:
unable to load key file

My current version is 6.9.10-23, but it seems not working correct with jp2 encoding (don't create a jp2, but a tiff called jp2). I have version 7.1.0-2 on win10 and it works fine! So I want to install latest version of this software, and as I read in some discussion, I try to install by IMEI.

How can I have IM7?

    What is your Ubuntu version? Which steps you did? – N0rbert Aug 19 '21 at 07:37
  • The current version of ImageMagick is 8:6.9.10.23+dfsg-2.1ubuntu11.4 and is available from the ubuntu software center. If you need v7, please explain your reason in your question by using [edit] – graham Aug 19 '21 at 07:46
  • I have Ubuntu 20.04 virtualized on WSL on win10.
    I followed the steps you can read as answer to this [question](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1216469/what-is-simplest-process-to-get-imagemagick-7-with-png-support-on-ubuntu/     – Gazzubuteo Aug 19 '21 at 07:47
  • Looks like you have had installed version 6.5.2 of IMEI, which was released one day before you've posted this question: https://github.com/SoftCreatR/imei/commit/a55692c3582c816b1f3ab8eb8628abfa0e71d26d#diff-49155aca3829a4bb7ba8eb07d3f0b772dc7dad1fe7e04f0db1d1f8dc9485c0c1

    So upgrading to the latest version of IMEI will most likely solve your problem.

Probably you have corrupted download. The application requires bash, openssl and wget, so you need to install them first by

sudo apt-get install bash openssl wget

Then download again by following official guide:

cd /tmp

wget https://dist.1-2.dev/imei.sh && \                                  # Download IMEI
wget https://dist.1-2.dev/imei.sh.sig && \                              # Download signature file
wget https://dist.1-2.dev/imei.sh.pem && \                              # Download public key
openssl dgst -sha512 -verify imei.sh.pem -signature imei.sh.sig imei.sh # Verify

and then run the installer

sudo bash ./imei.sh

  • Wow! It works fine! My PC has compiled and installed IM7 in 42 minutes (is it normal???), but I just tried the conversion in jp2 and all goes right. This solution is the right one!!!!! thx! – Gazzubuteo Aug 19 '21 at 09:48
  • @Gazzubuteo I can't speak to the compile time personally, but I would ask if the files are on the Windows drive (e.g. /mnt/c) or the root filesystem (e.g. /home/...). If you are using WSL2, there can be a huge slowdown when using Windows drives, especially when there are many small files (as I imagine the source that you are working with might have). – NotTheDr01ds Sep 13 '21 at 23:05
  • IMEI installs everything it needs by itself (e.g. openssl). It also doesn't rely on wget, it alternatively works with cURL or httpie. – SGL Sep 15 '21 at 18:57
