Wrong JPEG library version: library is 80, caller expects 62

Question

I'm trying to test a C program to access to webcam and make a snapshot, I found this code https://gist.github.com/bellbind/6813905

I built it using

 gcc -std=c99 capture.c -ljpeg -o capture

but the following error occurs

Wrong JPEG library version: library is 80, caller expects 62

I'm using ubuntu 14.10 Any idea how to solve this problem ?

It's not written by me. I attached the link to the code on github — Amed, Jan 27 '17 at 22:22

Thanks for the informations about the site, but did you read my question ? I'm not asking to explain the code, I am looking for fixing an error which can occur using any other code with jpeg library written by anyone. — Amed, Jan 27 '17 at 23:00
If you have GraphicsMagick, please un-install it. It worked for me. — ajaysinghdav10d, Aug 02 '17 at 09:07

I had a similar issue I was able to solve by setting the desired JPEG version in a config file located in /usr/include/jconfig.h in my Ubuntu 18.04 install. I simply set the value of JPEG_VERSION. it was 62, and I set it to 80. I then had no trouble building my project and linking the correct version. Note that this file is auto generated by another CMake configuration file, so it is kind of a hack, and not the permanent solution.
