[campsite-dev] Image magick again
  • Hi all,
    I just received message from FreeBSD port maintainer about dropping
    support of PHP-Imagick extension.
    The reason is, noone cares about it for a long time and it does not work
    properly.

    Therefore his suggestion is to ude GD in all port apps and use
    ImageMagick externaly.

    I know, this is exactly the thing Campsite does, but for the future
    development it might be usefull to know.

  • By the way, on FreeBSD I replace ImageMagick with GraphicsMagick. It has
    way better performance and less dependencies Smile
