Bug Description

Try to install perlmagick package and run following command:

$ perl -e 'use Image::Magick'

I get this error:

perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so: undefined symbol: MagickCoreGenesis

It seems that perlmagick has some wrong link... let's see the buildlog (1):
Snippet:

cc -L../magick/.libs -lMagickCore -shared -O2 -g -L/usr/local/lib -fstack-protector -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -L/usr/lib/X11 Magick.o -o blib/arch/auto/Image/Magick/Magick.so \
    -lperl -lm \

I don't understand...

I played with "PerlMagick/Makefile.PL.in" but LIBS seems not used.

I've got a fix for this. By the time MakeMaker is run, libMagickCore.so doesn't exist, so MakeMaker drops it from LIBS. By moving when MakeMaker is run until after the main library is built, we avoid this problem. Upload coming.

This bug was fixed in the package imagemagick - 8:6.6.9.7-5ubuntu2

---------------
imagemagick (8:6.6.9.7-5ubuntu2) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - Build PerlMagick Makefile after building main library, so that
      MakeMaker can find the library instead of stripping it from the
      link line. LP: #897380
