Problem reading JPEG files

[Anirban Jana]

Hi,
I am trying to read JPEG files with Octave on a Itanium 2/SUSE Linux 
platform. I have installed Octave 3.2.4 with GraphicsMagick-1.3.7 ( to 
get rid of a semaphore error). But when I try to to read JPEG file, I get

octave:1> ii=imread('optical_illusion_men.jpg');
error: imread: invalid image file: Magick++ exception: Magick: Unable to 
access configuration file (magic.mgk) reported by magick/blob.c:1830 
(GetConfigureBlob)

However, magic.mgk exists in 
/usr/local/packages/GraphicsMagick/1.3.7/share/GraphicsMagick-1.3.7/config. 
I am trying to figure out how to tell Octave that. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Anirban
