I have a set of removes to clean our all standard installs regardless
of any package managemant (they sometimes don't clean up absolutely
everything.

See the bottom of IM Examples, API, Building
  http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/api/#building

Specifically...
  rm -rf /usr/lib/ImageMagick-*
  rm -rf /usr/lib/lib{Magick,Wand}*
  rm -rf /usr/share/ImageMagick-*
  rm -rf /usr/share/doc/ImageMagick-*
  rm -rf /usr/include/{ImageMagick,Magick++,magick,wand}
  rm -rf /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/*/i386-linux-thread-multi/Image/Magick*
  rm -rf /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/*/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Image/Magick*
  rm -rf /usr/share/man/man?/*Magick*
  rm -f /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ImageMagick.pc
