libIlmImf is part of libopenexrNN with NN changing from Debian release
to Debian release.

In Debian 11 "bullseye" it is supposed to be libIlmImf-2_5.so.25.
  https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/amd64/libopenexr25/filelist

libIlmImf-2_2.so.23 is in Debian 10 "buster":
  https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libopenexr23/filelist

(One can use the package descriptions of libopenexr-dev as guide to get
to the names of libopenexr in the various Debian versions.)

So the question is why your Debian 11 ImageMagick demands the library
version from Debian 10.
(The ever changing name of the libopenexrNN packages might indicate that
more than one of them may be installed in the same system. But that's
only a guess of mine.)


Have a nice day :)
