Seriously?

While RMagick might be memleak-ridden, ImageMagick itself is fine. The
dependencies you're talking about don't apply if you don't install it
with all the default flags set (that goes from package manager to
package manager). Though the fact that it installs a bunch of
utilities really doesn't matter. It's just disk space.

I've been using it since I *way* before Ruby and Rails. The only
complain I had was the fact it would install all the X11 dependencies
along. The one fine day I realised it was happening because by default
Gentoo (yeah, long ago) had +thewholeplanet set as options. Removed
that, and suddenly ImageMagick had a fraction of the dependencies it
originally had.

These days installing it on OSX with homebrew is as easy as running a
command a getting a cup of coffee.
