Why don't ImageMagick installable comes with all the delegates? I did a fresh install of 6.4.5 and my library configuration is

DELEGATES bzlib freetype png x11 xml zlib
LIB_VERSION_NUMBER 6,4,5,1
LIBS -lMagickCore -lfreetype -lXext -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lXt -lbz2 -lz -lm -lpthread

Now I have to download extra libraries for JPEG, tiff etc. Is there a reason behind this?

Thanks for the help.

If you install the binary rather than the source, you get most if not all the delegates.
