    Ports are updated by their maintainers. The procedure is described
    here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/

    graphics/ImageMagick is orphaned, which means that your chances for
    a timely update are pretty low. But feel free to update the port
    yourself (see the Porter's Handbook above), and send in the patch: 
    send-pr(1).
