Bug Description
Attempting to load a webp image -- for instance,
https:/
or
https:/
-- in a gdk-pixbuf app results in a "Couldn’t recognize the image file format" error.
Bug 1318327 covers this issue in eye of gnome, and bug 1407644 in libwebp, but isn't this really a gdk-pixbuf issue? If it really does belong to libwebp, my apologies, please dup this bug to 1407644 (I'm confident it doesn't belong to eog since I don't use that program; I have other programs that use libgdk-pixbuf).
You can probably use eog to test this, or run
/usr/lib/
(I assume the loader would mention webp if there was a loader for it).
I have these packages installed in addition to libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0: libwebp-dev libwebp6 libwebpdemux2 libwebpmux3 webp. file recognizes the format:
$ file /tmp/FKK78W.
/tmp/FKK78W.
