FORK NOTES
2+
3+
This is a forked version of this gem to play nice with CentOS 6.7 64 bit.

5+
A pull request that may or may not be generally useful has been sent to the owning repo.

I was getting the following error running the IMGKit gem on Centos:
8+
9+
libjpeg.so.8: cannot open shared object file
10+
11+
For this modified branch, it contains the wkhtmltoimage binary specifically for Centos 6 64bit,
12+
compiled on Centos 6.6, extracted from the rpm package at http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html.
13+
14+
I finally just pulled the rpm package from http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html for CentOS 6.6, pulled it apart and substituted the binary and found it working.
15+
16+
Also was hitting error with the lsb_version check so added a thrown error if that command fails so at least it would be easier for someone to fix the issue (ie adding the package containing that command).
