Answers.Text: imagick is indeed missing from `admin/utils/phpinfo`, so I assume this is the issue. Have requested installation of this also. Thanks!!

  One of our servers hosting a Craft site has recently had ImageMagick installed on it, as we noticed that transformed animated GIFs weren't animating.
  
  The 'Requirement Report' at `/admin/utils/serverinfo` is still reporting a 'warning' against ImageMagick (as it was before it was installed), and Craft seems to still be using GD as the freshly transformed animated GIFs still aren't animating.
  
  Is there a way to force Craft to 'recheck' the available modules on the server (and so in my case, for it to recognise that it can now use ImageMagick)?

  Craft will re-run the requirement checks simply by loading that `admin/utils/serverinfo` page. The results aren't cached.
  
  It sounds like your box may have had the [ImageMagic](https://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php) library installed, but not the [PHP wrapper](https://secure.php.net/manual/en/book.imagick.php) for it. You can check by going to `admin/utils/phpinfo` and searching for `imagick` and if there are no results, it's not installed.
  
  Alternatively maybe it is installed, but you're explicitly setting the [imageDriver](https://craftcms.com/docs/config-settings#imageDriver) config setting to `'gd'`. Be default, it's set to `null` which means Craft will automatically use Imagick if it sees its available.
