I have tried to uninstall/install libtiff, imagemagick, just won’t work

$ brew uninstall libtiff
$ brew install imagemagick
$ brew uninstall imagemagick
$ brew install imagemagick

Any idea of what’s wrong with my installation? Thanks in advance,

    I’ve been having the same problem and just managed to fix it.

    brew install libtiff
brew install imagemagick --with-libtiff

    I tried a number of times combinations of uninstalling and reinstalling imagemagick and libtiff, but had the same results each time. I was hoping that brew would magically pick up on libtiff and link it in.

    I eventually found the with-libtiff option by looking at the output of the command

    brew info imagemagick

    Before January 30th, 2013, the option was called --use-tiff.
