I'm not familiar with fedora, nor 64 bit, so I will just give advice
as to what I would try.
I would guess that you either didn't build PerlMagick properly,
or you have multiple ImageMagick libs installed, and the perl .so
file built with the new source code, is trying to load with an
older installed ImageMagick lib.
For instance, if you don't specify the right prefix in the configure
options, you will end up putting stuff into /usr/local/lib which may
conflict with libs in /usr/lib. (Or some variation of the multiple libs mixup,
depending on your distro's setup ).
This is what I do, and never(knock on wood) have problems.
1. Download and unpack the ImageMagick source code.
2. Do "which -a convert" to see where your default IM stuff is installed.
If you get 2(or more) convert locations, you will need to clean out all
but one of them, remove all the utilities and extra libs.
Usually, you will get 1 location from "which -a convert", and it will
normally be in /usr/bin
3. Usually you want only 1 install, so assuming your distro install is in /usr,
(not /usr/local), do this to replace your current one
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install ( as root)
ldconfig ( make sure your new libs are loaded )
4. Now build the PerlMagick.
a. cd into the PerlMagick subdir
b. perl Makefile.PL
make
make install (as root)
So try that process, and report what errors you see at any step.
You may have some problem with the Perl that comes with fedora,
and may need to build your own Perl.
Goodluck,
