I've been getting around this by using:

dnf install -y gcc make ImageMagick-devel php-{devel,pear}
pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
pear config-set php_ini /etc/php.ini
yes '' | pecl install imagick

I'm hoping for a cleaner, more robust way!

+1. We'd also like to see this package included.

[chrisking]

+1 for this being useful. Also given it was in earlier php releases it makes sense to add it as part of the standard bundle that rolls out with new version support.

Just noting that I'd love to see this package added for AL2023 and PHP 8.2 (and future versions of php). We've added the necessary commands to get pecl to install imagick, but it'd be a lot nicer to have a repo package for it.
