Would it be possible for php-imagik to get HEIC support?

[fideloper]

Apple devices are trending towards using HEIC image format.

As a result, support for HEIC in Imagick has been requested by clients more and more.

I was curious if it would be feasible to include HEIC support in php-imagick?

Here's a reference: https://eplt.medium.com/5-minutes-to-install-imagemagick-with-heic-support-on-ubuntu-18-04-digitalocean-fe2d09dcef1

It requires:

• libde265
• libheif
• building imagick with the --with-heic=yes flag, e.g. ./configure --with-heic=yes

Unfortunately, I don't have any spare cycles to include imagemagick into my package set. It's not lightweight package and it would require a lot of time to properly backport and forwardport all the changes.
