Redmine

I installed redmine on an ubuntu 10.04 box. I got all the ruby 1.8 from the ubuntu packages (with the usual aptitude installs) including (librmagick-ruby1.8 2.11.1-1) and installed rails 2.3.5 via a sudo gem install and installed Redmine from svn trunk (r3902 at the time)

The error:
When I came to the "rake db:migrate" step, I got the this error crashing the command:

"This installation of RMagick was configured with ImageMagick 6.5.5 but ImageMagick 6.5.7-8 is in use"

I googled around and found a debian thread saying that I can bypass this RMagick check and that it wasn't so big a deal (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=557778)

So I added that bypass line to lib/redmine.rb (see attached patch to this issue ticket) and the rake db:migrate went through as did the rest of the installation.

Is the bypass a good idea in general? If so is that really the best place to put it? I leave it in greater ruby hands to answer.

Thanks!
