Comment (by nickpagz):

 @adamsilverstein I'm doing some local testing on that PR, specifically to
 see how Imagemagick/GD handles the HDR avifs. What versions of Imagemagick
 are you using? I'm still working on getting 7.1.1 to run on my local
 setup.
 So far I've only been able to test on 6.9.11 - which works ok for regular
 avif's, ie. thumbnails are generated and image editing (cropping/scaling)
 works. However, HDR avif's lose their "HDR" characteristics (I suspected
 this would be the case), and funky color profiles also won't compute, like
 the Hato avif versions from this site:
 https://aomediacodec.github.io/av1-avif/testFiles/Link-U/

 Anyways, hoping to get a more recent version of Imagemagick to test this
 again, and also get GD library up as well, though I fear the same outcome.

 I'll report back with more details as soon as I can.
