sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y build-essential pkg-config checkinstall git \
  libx11-dev libxext-dev zlib1g-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-dev \
  libtiff-dev libwebp-dev libheif-dev libde265-dev libavif-dev \
  libraw-dev liblcms2-dev libfftw3-dev libxml2-dev libfreetype6-dev \
  libonig-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libzip-dev libssl-dev \

STEP 2: Compile & Install ImageMagick 7

cd /usr/local/src
sudo git clone https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick.git
cd ImageMagick

sudo ./configure --with-modules --enable-shared --with-webp --with-heic --with-avif
sudo make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

Verify the setup

magick -version

Should show ImageMagick 7 and AVIF support.

  --with-pear && \
make -j$(nproc) && \
make install && \
export PATH=$PHP_PREFIX/bin:$PATH && \
export PHP_CONFIG="$PHP_PREFIX/bin/php-config" && \
export PHPIZE="$PHP_PREFIX/bin/phpize" && \
$PHP_PREFIX/bin/pecl uninstall imagick -r || true && \
$PHPIZE && \
$PHP_PREFIX/bin/pecl install imagick && \
grep -q "extension=imagick.so" $PHP_PREFIX/etc/php.ini || echo "extension=imagick.so" >> $PHP_PREFIX/etc/php.ini && \
grep -q "extension=imagick.so" $PHP_PREFIX/etc/php-cli.ini || echo "extension=imagick.so" >> $PHP_PREFIX/etc/php-cli.ini && \
