"port list" tells you what ports are available, not what ports are installed.

"port installed" tells you what ports are installed.

See https://trac.macports.org/wiki/FAQ#portlist

That however does sound like you have the new version. Between 6.8.0-7 and 6.8.5 the ImageMagick developers made some rather major changes to where files are installed, what they're called, how they work, etc. This has caused some software that uses ImageMagick to break. Any such software needs to be fixed.

That's not a good solution; you should remove that link again. Sounds like the program you're trying to compile assumes the include files are in the ImageMagick directory, which they aren't anymore. Software that's properly using pkg-config to locate where ImageMagick files are and what they're called should continue to work, so any software that's not working, and that's making assumptions about where ImageMagick files are, should be changed to use pkg-config.

What are you trying to compile?

No; it's just a newer version, which behaves differently from the older version.

Yes:

But instead you should fix whatever program you're trying to compile so that it works with the current version.
