But we have various alternatives: - imagick - gmagick - vips (perhaps others) And ImageMagick is really an ugly upstream - most common commit message is "..." [1] - unstable API (imagick extension even check that build version === runtime versions) - soname bump in patch version (yes, really, when 4th digit change) - lack of CI (else I don't understand how they can release with broken tests [2]) And about extensions: - imagick conflicts with gmagick (as GraphicMagick is a fork of ImageMagick, you cannot load both in the same process), so having imagick the default one will kill gmagick.
