Comment (by Dave-Allured):

 Here is something else to explore.  That is a long list of MacPorts ports
 that depend on ImageMagick.  Separate into two lists:
 * ImageMagick is a library dependency.
 * ImageMagick is only a runtime dependency, and nothing else.
 I have a hunch that the runtime dependent ports may be easy to fix, or
 just work with no changes.  The one port that I know about uses the
 "convert" command and nothing else, if I remember correctly.

 Watch out for port files that have mislabeled ImageMagick as a library
 dependency when they only use it as a runtime dependency, i.e don't link
 and just use it in command mode only.  I have seen this kind of thing
 before.
