ppa:strukturag/libheif build is broken? #912

Closed lgritz closed 1 year ago

lgritz commented 1 year ago

My project (OpenImageIO) uses libheif, and my CI jobs pull from your pre-built apt repo like this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:strukturag/libde265
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:strukturag/libheif
sudo apt-get -q install -y libheif-dev

Starting two days ago, my hief-related tests started failing with "unsupported codec" errors when I try to read avif files. Looking at my CI records, it seems the failures correspond to the point a couple days ago when grabbing ppa:strukturag/libheif transitioned from getting me 1.14.2 to 1.16.2.

My MacOS CI case uses 1.16.2, but from Homebrew, and it works fine, so I think that the problem is not that there's anything wrong with 1.16.2 per se, but that the new build you are hosting on ppa:strukturag is broken.

The codecs are now packaged separately. You might have to also install, for example

apt get libheif-plugin-aomdec libheif-plugin-aomenc libheif-plugin-libde265 libheif-plugin-x265

to get AVIF and HEIC support.

Ah, ok, thanks. Is there anything on the app side I need to do from an API standpoint to enable these codecs? Or is merely installing those packages sufficient?

Thanks, @farindk and @bigcat88, that was crucial missing information I needed. All working again now.

These packages are pulled through Recommends from the libheif1 package, so unless you are installing with --no-install-recommends, everything should be working as before after the upgrade.
