Created attachment 1834922 [details] Image used for testing Description of problem: `imlib2` is capable of loading WebP images since version 1.6.0, but the packages currently available on Fedora repositories (built on version 1.6.1) don't make use of that feature because of it being disabled when configuring due to a missing BuildRequires on libwebp-devel. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.6.1-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install an image viewer that uses imlib2 for loading images (such as feh or sxiv) 2. Open a WebP image using that image viewer Actual results: Image viewer notifies an error loading the image and exits. Expected results: Image viewer loads and displays the WebP image. Additional info: Note that the package is also outdated, with 1.6.1 released on December 2019 and the current version being 1.7.4, released on September 2021. feh outputs: $ feh Descargas/WebP-Gradient.webp feh WARNING: Descargas/WebP-Gradient.webp - No Imlib2 loader for that file format feh: No loadable images specified. See 'man feh' for detailed usage information and sxiv outputs: $ sxiv Descargas/WebP-Gradient.webp sxiv: Descargas/WebP-Gradient.webp: Error opening image sxiv: no more files to display, aborting Build logs show the option being disabled under "Configuration Options Summary": https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/imlib2/1.6.1/3.fc34/data/logs/x86_64/build.log
FEDORA-2021-46382dbc1e has been submitted as an update to Fedora 36. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-46382dbc1e
FEDORA-2021-46382dbc1e has been pushed to the Fedora 36 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report.
Great! Thanks for the quick response, just a question, is this update also coming to other Fedora releases such as 35 and 34?
I can rebuild the imlib2 in F34 and F35 with webp support I guess. I don't want to rebase in the stable releases though: there are some ABI changes (albeit compatible) and the security bugs were patched so the need to rebase is small.
New 1.6.1 releases with webp support: imlib2-1.6.1-4.fc34: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-a21bbc056e imlib2-1.6.1-5.fc35: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-8e0fef9eaa
