Yes, that would probably be necessary when configuring some other
package that is supposed to use my newly installed IM. However, Wand
is part of IM, and the non-standard prefix does not even exist at
configure and compile time; it will be created during "make install".
As far as I can tell, Wand should look inside the IM _build_ directory
for libMagick. I can try to compile with
LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/magick-build/something-or-other, but shouldn't it look
there by default?
