Am i missing something? How to make it work?

Answer 1

Just had this myself. For anyone visiting via Google from the future, you need two additional packages first:

sudo apt-get install libgraphicsmagick++1-dev libboost-python-dev

Answer 2

You are probably missing the GraphicsMagick-c++-devel package (available from the EPEL repository).
