[Bug 1117481] Re: Imagemagick lacks support for webp

[Kristian Erik Hermansen]

Some Google-affiliated researchers have fuzzed WebP in ImageMagick and
found no significant bugs thus far. I would say that WebP support is
more stable at this time. Please build it as default option.

Title:
  Imagemagick lacks support for webp

Status in imagemagick package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/using is stated that
  ImageMagick does support webp

  The Ubuntu source package for imagemagick does not declare a build
  dependency on libwebp-dev. Thus imagemagick gets build without webp
  support.

  I consider this a bug and suggest that ImageMagick should be build
  with webp support
