Site Health – opt module, imagick, is not installed

  • I am hosting on Godaddy, php 8.1
    I have the option for gmagick and imagick on the php modules
    I need gmagick for the site to work and some plugins only work with that module.
    I get on my WP hosting:
    improvements Warning:
    PHP modules perform most of the tasks on the server that make your site run. Any changes to these must be made by your server administrator.
    The WordPress Hosting Team maintains a list of those modules, both recommended and required, …
    Warning The optional module, imagick, is not installed, or has been disabled.

    When I try to select the php module imagick in addition, I get:
    WARNING: imagick skipped as conflicting.
    I found the following
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GraphicsMagick
    So can Site Health accommodate for that? Or do further testing, provide more info on this topic?

    Shouldn’t Site Health determine that the gmagick is installed and then not show the performance issue?

    GraphicsMagick (Gmagick) is a fork of ImageMagick (Imagick)
    it is NOT compatible as Imagick replacement (While having similar API, it has different classes and function names)

    For WordPress ImageEditor class you only can use Imagick and GD
