Hi,

I have been using RMagick and File Column in my app together without a  
problem, but when I tried to add in some new functionality in my model  
where I use file\_column, I got the error in the subject line. The  
offending line in my code is:

image = Magick::ImageList.new(path\_to\_image)

Has anybody ever seen this problem when using the two libraries  
together? I have tried adding in a require ‘RMagick’ and an include  
Magick, but that doesn’t seem to clear up the (apparent) namespace  
issues.

Any ideas here would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Simon
