    We're also tracking this on our end with UPS-307 :D

    A solution would be appreciated. I don't think we should expect anything shortly from the PECL. Leaves us to build manually from the master, which works, however I prefer to implement something that's officially recommended by cPanel. Maybe cPanel should consider to contribute to the project (Imagick/imagick) and/or sponsor the author (Sponsor @Danack on GitHub Sponsors). Thank you

    Currently there hasn't been any updates from the PHP/PECL team on this yet, so I don't have anything else to provide on my end.

    So what is the idea here? We cannot upgrade to PHP 8 due imagick not working. Please help!

    @dirklammert - since this is a bug with PHP itself, as mentioned a few posts ago with the upstream bug link, there isn't much we can do on our end for this issue as I don't believe we plan to create customizations to work around PHP limitations.

    This is needed for our site too.

    cPanel should sponsor this project, just like Automattic and DreamHost did. There is no upstream PHP bug, and there is no need to "track" of the issue. Just support the project. Thanks

    Indeed it does - I've left a comment on the case for our developers to double-check everything on our side and make sure things are compatible, but it looks like it's good to go.

    Any clue when this will be released? Is compiling the current Imagick for ea-php80 from source in the meantime a no-no?

    Let me check a bit later today and I'll see if I can get more details from that team.

    I confirmed this is working today on a CentOS 7 test server with cPanel 96. I did the following: yum install ImageMagick ImageMagick-devel -y /opt/cpanel/ea-php80/root/usr/bin/pecl install imagick
    and that worked well for me. Let me know if you're still seeing issues.
