Hi,
Imager's installation won't install the libjpeg, libtiff, libgif etc
libraries needed by Imager's file modules, you need to install these
from source, or via a package manager.
For OS X, this is typically as simple as:
- download the file
- extract and build:
tar xzf libjpeg8b.tar.gz
cd libjpeg8b
./configure
make && sudo make install
for each library.
See
https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Imager/lib/Imager/Install.pod
for more information on where to find the library sources, and
possible issues with installing them.
An alternative is to use one of the package management systems for OS
X, and install their library packages. I don't use any of them, but:
https://www.quora.com/Should-I-use-Fink-MacPorts-Homebrew-or-something-else-for-MacOS-package-management-Which-are-most-popular-currently-Are-there-any-newer-players-worth-preferring-such-as-Rudix
provides a reasonable comparison of MacPorts and Homebrew.
