Heroku buildpack with libvips installed.
Current vips version is 7.38.4 with webp 0.4.0 and orc 0.4.18
Point the BUILDPACK_URL config or add to your .buildpacks this:
https://github.com/alex88/heroku-buildpack-vips.git
or, if you want to stick with a version:
https://github.com/alex88/heroku-buildpack-vips.git#7.38.4.0
PS: You can even use the ruby-vips gem ;)
Buildpack is tagged with the vips version it uses with the scheme of vips-mayor.vips-minor.vips-pl.buildpack-pl
Open a damn issue or pull request (way appreciated) ;)
