Summary

Description: Adds a plugin for ImageMagick 6, the legacy series. Distributions increasingly ship ImageMagick 7, whose CLI and ABI differ, so projects still on 6 (RMagick, MiniMagick, or anything calling convert directly) need a way to pin a known 6.x. The existing imagemagick shortname points at a plugin for the 7.x series, so this is a separate tool rather than a change to that entry.

The plugin builds any of the 418 tagged 6.x releases from source into an isolated prefix. Linux x86_64 is the supported and CI-tested target; macOS is untested and the README says so rather than implying support.

Checklist

  • Format with scripts/format.bash
  • Test locally with scripts/test_plugin.bash --file plugins/imagemagick6 — passes, OK plugins/imagemagick6
  • Your plugin CI tests are green
