Since I'm the maintainer of the ImageMagick port I should probably respond. The ImageMagick port currently follows ImageMagick 6. As such, it is not very outdated. It's at version 6.9.11-29 and the current version is 6.9.11-30. I update the port several times a month, as seen here: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commits/master/graphics/ImageMagick/Portfile We should offer ImageMagick 7 in addition to ImageMagick 6 but I have not begun work on doing that. Since ImageMagick 6 will be supported until 2027 I have not felt an urgency to work on that. Our ImageMagick 6 port is supposed to support HEIC/HEIF. If it's not working for you, show us what you're doing, what result you're getting, and what result you were expecting to get.
