--- Comment #5 from Carl George 🤠 carl@redhat.com --- ImageMagick is tricky when it comes to library stability. Even going from 6.9.11.x to 6.9.12.x involves a library soname change. Upgrading to version 7 would be even more disruptive and not in line with the EPEL updates policy.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy/
If the maintainers want to pursue this in spite of the risk, we have the EPEL incompatible upgrade process to do it deliberately and carefully.

--- Comment #6 from Carl George 🤠 carl@redhat.com --- This is actually even less predictable than I thought. I originally compared Fedora builds of 6.9.11.27 and 6.9.12.25 and assumed that the third section moving from 11 to 12 was when the library soname changed from 6 to 7. It actually changed going from 6.9.11.60 to 6.9.11.61.

It remains true that upgrading to anything version 7 will be a drastic change that is generally inappropriate for EPEL.
