Why isn’t Imagick shipped with WordPress?

  • It’s obvious there are a number of people having a multitude of problems with WordPress’ implementation of imagick (not to mention questions regarding the Site Health feature regarding imagick).

    Could WordPress please research a fix/correction/rewrite of the code to deal with these issues? Please????

    It’s simply been a war for those like myself who had no issues for years, but in the last months (couple of years) have been losing valuable billable hours due to this issue.

    At the least, share with us why imagick is not shipping in the WP download.
    Thanks in advance.

    FYI:

    We just checked a third site on that same workstation. It’s fine.

    I compared the class-wp-media-list-table.php files from Site 1 and Site 2. They match. (Used Compare in Notepadd++)

    Next step? Don’t know. Could use some input.

    Thanks.

    Windows ports of webstack (as you call it – Apache and friends, including system libraries) always been known to be buggy and painful, its rarely you dont encounter any problems with them, they also depends on particular build, one build can work, the other can be buggy.

    As been already mentioned above – on Unix hosting it should work without problems,
    unless you have very exotic host where sysadmin loves to play with building software packages themself.
