    sudo apt-get install imagemagick9-dev

    Reading package lists… Done
    Building dependency tree… Done
    E: Couldn’t find package imagemagick9-dev

    Any thoughts on why this didn’t work?

    Have you edited your /etc/apt/source.list file to add the universe source sites?

    How do you query the installed imagemagick package to determine what delegates have been included? If a delegate isn’t in the apt-get package, what do you do?

    I had the same issues as rbitar, and I verified that my /etc/apt/source.list has the universe source sites enabled. Is there something I’m missing? Thanks!

    what worked for me was this:
    sudo apt-get install libmagick9-dev

    (not imagemagick9-dev.. .that’s for fink)
