Why not simply download binary distribution from
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx
Is there a problem with it? Does it not include all dependencies?

No it doesn't. I get ghostscript errors when trying to write with some non TrueType fonts. I still use my old, ppc, hard way compiled bins for that.

MacPorts may be easy to use, but it is not bleeding-edge current with its releases. The Problem I've been having is a small install base for MacPorts. I found multpiple installs for ghostscript, for example. a lot of that included the massive ghostscript documentation if I remember correctly.
I am dealing with installs on private linux servers, and I rather take the direct step in making things work. MacPorts, as fantastic as it is with its somewhat confusing dependancies, creates an additional layer of FUBAR when things go really wrong.
And, *Nix people like it simple, as contradictory as it sounds. Download from supplier, compile from source, with exactly what you need, not additionally 'recommended' add-ons -- even taking 'variants' into account.
Here are more complete instructions with install script, not as beautifully laid out and adjusted as Bach's pastie:

Quick note about libTIFF, which I recommend using the new beta. Tiff has problems in Leopard, especially on a PowerPC under Leopard, but I digress.
If you are comfortable using terminal, and you have some time on your hands, install DIRECTLY from source.
There are two problems with your argument: I am dealing with installs on private linux servers, and I rather take the direct step in making things work. MacPorts, as fantastic as it is with its somewhat confusing dependancies, creates an additional layer of FUBAR when things go really wrong.

- most people don't want 'bleeding edge' -- unless you meant 'up to date', and not actually 'unstable: use at your peril'
- Linux systems use package management systems: apt, yum, RHN, whatever. These provide all the dependencies a package needs. MacPorts and Fink replicate this approach, building from source (the Gentoo way)

Neither of the above ideas worked for me but this script did. Great work!

I needed to specify rmagick 2.5.2 manually.
sudo gem install rmagick --version '= 2.5.2'
sudo gem install rmagick --version '= 2.5.2'

Please notice the newer versions of the Ruby rmagick gem (>=2.6.0) require also a newer version of imagemagick.
So instead of curling 6.4.2 when downloading ImageMagick just type: That's it.

The script works most of the way for me, but then I get this error:

Are you attempting to install it on OS X Server? I had the same problem there, but copying those files (and symlinks) from my client to the server seemed to fix it.

I updated the script a bit: http://pastie.org/526802
For instance the jpegsrc had to be updated to v7 since v6b wasn't available anymore.

Before trying this, try to install the binaries from the ImageMagick website: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx
It worked for me without any problems. I did install the developer DVD from apple in the past, though.
On the other hand, the script in this hint failed at the first hurdle - couldn't even untar freetype-2.*.tar.bz2 -got the message
bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file
