I'm running PHP 7.4 on an AWS Linux 2 instance. PHP 7.4 comes with imagick module 3.4.4 compiled by ImageMagick 6.9.10-6, but it doesn't have support for WEBP enabled.

I've installed the libwebp-devel library, but I can't figure out how to recompile the imagick module to support webp. I tried installing from the PECL source a la this comment, but when I check php -i WEBP still isn't listed under supported formats.

I also tried installing ImageMagick from source, and while I was able to get WEBP conversion going in the command line, the PHP extension still doesn't show support.

I'm not currently expert at PHP, but after reading this post Understanding PHP library installation and knowing some linux ecosystem, I think that after recompiling ImageMagick, you have to tell to the imagick module, that you have new version of ImageMagick. Or even recompile module (according to this site: https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/217253537-Installing-ImageMagick-and-the-imagick-PHP-module-on-Shared-hosting).
