    Hi,
    Installing imagick with libheif is not supported even in latest Debian. You must recompile. The use of the AppImage magick may be more portable. That’s why I suggest that you provide support for this binary in your plugin.

    Is it possible to run AppImages from PHP?

    I have not tried it yet but there is also another possibility to directly run ImageMagick binary with php exec() function. You need to run the convert command and then bypass the php-imagick extension which is not available via apt package. I suppose running the AppImage is the same with the magick commande instead of convert.

    This is requiring some server configuration for correct executing rights.

    That doesn’t sound like a strategy I want to deploy and support here. A plugin with a call to exec() will throw alerts in WP security scans, too.
