ImageMagick: dyld: Library not loaded. Reason: image not found

Question

1. I downloaded ImageMagick from https://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php#macosx
2. extracted it to ~/Documents/software
3. my .profile looks like this:

export MAGICK_HOME="~/Documents/software/ImageMagick-7.0.7"
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/lib/"
export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"

4. when I run convert I get:

dyld: Library not loaded: /ImageMagick-7.0.7/lib/libMagickCore-7.Q16HDRI.4.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/oa/Documents/software/ImageMagick-7.0.7/bin/convert
Reason: image not found Abort trap: 6

Answer 1

As suggested by @Mark Setchell, the solution was to replace ~ by $HOME. Therefore, the export commands should be:

export MAGICK_HOME="$HOME/Documents/software/ImageMagick-7.0.7"
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/lib/"
export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"
