RMagick gem fails to install on Debian Stable - ruby-on-rails

Question

edit:[FIXED]
The problem was that I had it installed already, but didn't know, and tried to install from source. This created two versions and the gem didn't know which to use. I fixed it by going to the downloaded source and running
sudo make uninstall
Then I ran gem install rmagick again and it worked!
[ORIGINAL PROBLEM]
I'm trying to install the rmagick gem like in this railscast. Here's a snippet of what I put in my gemfile:
gem 'rmagick'
gem 'carrierwave'
And when I run bundle install I get the following output:
Installing rmagick (2.13.1) with native extensions

An error occurred while installing rmagick (2.13.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install rmagick -v '2.13.1'` succeeds before bundling.
Regarding this line:

I think I've exhausted all the information on how to fix this error via google/stackoverflow. I already tried installing the development packages and such. Not sure where to go from here. Any help greatly appreciated.

"The new correct way is to install libmagickwand-dev:
sudo apt-get install libmagickwand-dev
Then you should be able to install rmagick no problem."
works on debian 6.0.6
