WordPress uses imagick, so any distro-specific replacements would not be detected, as such the warning is still valid.

Until such a time that WordPress may add gmagick as an image processor, the Site Health module will keep it's current recommendations in this area, and follow what the media team supports directly (should any plugin add support for GraphicsMagick then they should probably also modify the Site Health filters accordingly :) ).

As such, I am marking this as maybelater for now, in accordance with #23331 (the ticket about possibly adding support to WP for gmagick).
