Imagemagick installation throws a string error on Mac/OSX 10.8.4

I went ahead with the following commands to install ImageMagick:

1. $ brew update
2. $ brew uninstall imagemagick
3. $ brew install imagemagick

Throws the following error:

Error: version '3' should be a string

It's an error in the formula. You should report it to the Homebrew devs and it'll be fixed, if it's not fixed already.
