JPEG support for ImageMagick

Problem
On Debian Linux, there seems to be no out-of-the-box support for JPEG in ImageMagick.

Solution
First, install libjpeg62-dev library. libjpeg62 doesn't work because it doesn't include the necessary development files. Next, download ImageMagick's source and compile it manually. Use ./configure --with-jpeg=yes for configuring.
