Description John 2024-03-10 13:34:03 UTC
SUMMARY
***
Gwenveview cannot display WebP images. Support of WebP images [regression, removed from KDE 6] is missing. All is installed (libwebp, qt6/kde6 kimageformats, webp pixbuf loader, etc)
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin (no webp thumbnails, either)
2. Click to open webp image in Gwenview


OBSERVED RESULT
Gwenview does not support WebP images (regardless of installed supporring libraries). This is a regression form KDE 5.x. All worked there.

EXPECTED RESULT
Fix regression and start supporting WebP again.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
All libwebp, kimageformats 6/qt6, webp pixbuf loader, plugins, etc. is installed. Worked in KDE 5.x. After upgrade doesn't work anymore. No more support for webp.
Comment 1 Tim Carr 2024-03-10 23:12:32 UTC
Is "qt6-imageformats" installed? After installing that, both Dolphin and Gwenview are showing webp images for me.
Comment 2 Tim Carr 2024-03-11 18:50:50 UTC
Marking as needsinfo, in case it wasn't working and the user already had qt6-imageformats installed.
