I think the problem is that the package libmagickcore2 does not
contains only /usr/lib/libMagickCore.so.2, but also
modules in /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.5.1/modules-Q16, some of them 
depend on libmagickwand2, specifically
/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.5.1/modules-Q16/coders/svg.so
and
/usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.5.1/modules-Q16/coders/wmf.so

I would suggest to move /usr/lib/ImageMagick-6.5.1/modules-Q16 
from libmagickcore2 to a new package libmagickcore-modules.

Then we would have:
libmagickcore2: Depends:
libmagickwand2: Depends: libmagickcore2
libmagickcore-modules: Depends: libmagickcore2, libmagickwand2
