php - How can I add WebP support to a php7.2 install in a amazon linux 2 box?

Get the solution ↓↓↓

In a new amazon linux2 box I ran the following:

sudo amazon-linux-extras install php7.2

sudo yum install php-gd

But then when I run:

php -r 'var_dump(gd_info());'

I get:

array(13) { ["GD Version"]=> string(26) "bundled (2.1.0 compatible)" ["FreeType Support"]=> bool(true) ["FreeType Linkage"]=> string(13) "with freetype" ["GIF Read Support"]=> bool(true) ["GIF Create Support"]=> bool(true) ["JPEG Support"]=> bool(true) ["PNG Support"]=> bool(true) ["WBMP Support"]=> bool(true) ["XPM Support"]=> bool(true) ["XBM Support"]=> bool(true) ["WebP Support"]=> bool(false) ["BMP Support"]=> bool(true) ["JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support"]=> bool(false) }

I don't know what I have to do to have WebP Support as true
