I have trouble installing devisephp for laravel. I am working on the latest version of homestead with php7. when i do composer update i get the following error.

Problem 1
    - Installation request for devisephp/cms 1.4.* -> satisfiable by devisephp/cms[1.4.0].
    - devisephp/cms 1.4.0 requires ext-imagick * -> the requested PHP extension imagick is missing from your system.

After having this message i installed imagick on my homestead environment added the extension to php.ini in cli and fpm and checked in homestead if imagick is working with a test file. Everything was working perfectly but on running composer update i still get the same error message from above. Does anyone have a clue what the problem can be.

The stange thing is that is kan git clone devisephp its bootstrap version completely working including image handling but when i add another package to laravel i again get the above message.

if you really can't install or don't want that extension to be validated you may skip it by supplying the

--ignore-platform-reqs

flag to your composer command
