What is a WBMP file?
I had to do some research now. The QImageReader reports reading and writing this format. But after looking through the KImageFormatsPlugin sources for a while, I think this support comes straight from Qt. I also think Geoff is confusing this WBMP format with a modern Webp. But it is a format from old mobile phones in 1-Bit black and white format. The bug report can be closed. Maik
