AVIF support hasn't been included in the snap version #166

Since version 2.10.22, GIMP has supported AVIF. However, the snap version (I'm currently using 2.10.24) is missing this.

I tested the Flatpak version (2.10.28), and it does support AVIF.

I don't know specifically what needs to change to let the snap version of GIMP support AVIF, but I believe that it has something to do with libheif and libde265-0 (I could be wrong!).

Please include support for AVIF.

Thank you

the snap seems to include both these libs ... but looking at the snapcraft.yaml file it builds libheif from source first and ships that binary in the snap ... but then the gimp build itself links against the way older libheif-dev package from the archive ...

i guess someone needs to drop the libheif-dev line from build-packages: of the gimp part ...

Thanks, @ogra1. I'd completely missed that libheif-dev was still being pulled - I have previously omitted libheif1 from stage-packages but it seems I missed the -dev from build-packages 🤦‍♀️

This should now be fixed. Closing for now! :)
