Nope, nothing

That returned the follwing:

libMagick++.so.5 => not found
libMagickCore.so.5 => not found

I did a search in the repositories for appropriate packages and found
libmagick++5 . However, when trying to install it:

Package libmagick++5 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libmagick++5' has no installation candidate

libmagick++-6.q16-5 and similar packages are installed and I'm presume
these replace previous versions.

If recompiling is the only option can you give me any advice on doing this?

Thanks

Antonio
