Upgrading ImageMagick on Heroku - heroku

Is this possible? If so how I do upgrade from Version XXX to Version XXXX?
I can't seem to find any docs on it.
Thanks!

No.
Heroku maintain imagemagick as part of the service so you'd have to convince them to upgrade it across the platform.

The way to upgrade ImageMagick on heroku now is by using a 'buildpack'.
If you search through the buildpacks on heroku: https://elements.heroku.com/search/buildpacks?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=imagemagick you can see there are quite a few dedicated to updating ImageMagick.
You can install a custom buildpack by using the following command line call:
$ heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-erlang
Buildpack set. Next release on random-app-1234 will use https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-erlang.
Run `git push heroku master` to create a new release using this buildpack.
More information about buildpacks can be found here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/buildpacks

Heroku deploy and install from wheel saved in git repo

Is there a way to install a dependency (listed in the requirements.txt) not from pypi but from a wheel saved in the git repo while deploying?
This question might sound odd at first, but it is simply due to the fact that I can not share the wheel on pypi.
First you deploy your application to Heroku then you can use Heroku Bash to install any requirements
run this command for start your bash on heroku
heroku run bash

Imagemagick buildpack for Heroku-18 stack

I am upgrading my Heroku tech stack to Heroku-18 from heroku-16. I am getting error while deploying beacause of un supported Imagemagic build pack for Heroku-18. Is there any option to use another Imagemagic version that supports in Heroku-18 stack.thanks in advance.
Apparently Heroku 18 already comes with Imagemagick, so you no longer need the separate buildpack.

Heroku toolbelt installation not working

I have Heroku installed in my machine and I can check the version just for verification as you can see in the picture.
So now, I want to install heroku toolbelt but I am having problems to do so.
Everytime I go to the link: https://toolbelt.heroku.com/windows. I get redirected to this link:https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli which is just to install heroku.(which I already have installed).
Is there another way around I can use to intall toolbelt?

How do you install/download a specific version of the cassandra distributed database in mac os x?

I was trying to install Cassandra 2.0.5 for my Mac OS X (mavericks) but whenever I googled install Cassandra 2.0.5 I can't seem to find how to install the specific version of Cassandra that I want to install.
Is there a way to install a specific version of cassandra in general? Maybe through brew or something like that? Or whatever, I just want to install Cassandra 2.0.5 (but a more general procedure might be more useful in the long term).
TL;DR; You can get em here.
But.. there's a fun way too using git:
// -b cassandra-2.0 because you want a 2.0.x version of C*
// if you want a 2.1.x version use -b cassandra-2.1 and so on for other branches
git clone -b cassandra-2.0 git://git.apache.org/cassandra.git
cd cassandra
git tag -l
You'll now get a long list of different verions, here is a short segment of said list:
cassandra-2.0.0-beta2
cassandra-2.0.0-rc1
cassandra-2.0.0-rc2
cassandra-2.0.1
cassandra-2.0.2
cassandra-2.0.3
cassandra-2.0.4
cassandra-2.0.5
Next you can checkout the tag:
git checkout tags/cassandra-2.0.5
Finally you build C* using ant build and you're all set to ./bin/cassandra -f

how to install libreoffice on heroku

I am trying this http://documentcloud.github.io/docsplit/ on heroku which require libreoffice to be installed on heroku to cut docs in to pdfs.
Is there any build pack available for this or how to create a build pack for this
I was looking for an answer to this also, so I ended up building my own LibreOffice buildpack: https://github.com/rishihahs/heroku-buildpack-libreoffice
