Could not open image

[yshym]

[vilhalmer]

The only thing I can think of filesystem-wise would be a permissions issue. If that’s not the case, mind uploading the image so I can test it on my end?

[yshym]

@vilhalmer i've tried using different gif images and also tried changing image permissions. My system is 5.5.1-arch

[vilhalmer]

I just pushed 41d8e32 to improve the error message, hopefully it will shed some light.

What do you get if you run file on the gif? A lot of sites have started hosting mp4 video for files that claim to be gifs to save bandwidth.

[yshym]

lofi_wallpaper.gif: GIF image data, version 89a, 1920 x 1080. And yes, this gif is opened using mpv

[vilhalmer]

Can you attach it? I'm out of ideas for how to debug this remotely.

[yshym]

I've downloaded it from here

[vilhalmer]

I'm able to load it here. Hmm. The only other thing I can think of is some issue with pixbuf or how oguri is built against it. What's your version of gdk-pixbuf2? Did you build oguri by hand, or are you using the AUR package?

[yshym]

I use AUR oguri package

[vilhalmer]

That gdk-pixbuf from the AUR is incredibly out of date, I wonder if it's being picked up instead of 2.40 when building?

[yshym]

Removed gdk-pixbuf and reinstalled oguri. The issue remains

[vilhalmer]

I am at a loss. The only difference in my build output is that pkg-config is /bin/pkg-config on my system. Not sure why that would differ between arch installs, but it also shouldn't make any difference. Can you paste ldd /bin/oguri? (Please as text instead of a screenshot, it'll make comparing it much easier.)

Can you install python-gobject (good chance it's there already) and run this python snippet? It'll output all the extensions that pixbuf should be able to load on your system.

from gi.repository import GdkPixbuf
for fmt in GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.get_formats():
    print(fmt.get_extensions())

Something else to try would be loading a jpg or png. That would narrow down whether pixbuf is working at all.

Error is the same for jpg image

[vilhalmer]

I don't have a clue what could be wrong, sorry. :(

My last remaining thing to check is whether other software you have which depends on pixbuf is able to load images. I'll leave this open for now in case I think of anything else.

[vilhalmer]

Can you upload your oguri binary somewhere? I can try running it on my system to see if it exhibits the same behavior, they should presumably be compatible.

[yshym]

You can download it here

[vilhalmer]

It's able to load lofi_wallpaper.gif on my system. I'm not sure exactly what this means, but indicates that the problem must be outside oguri itself.

[yshym]

Interesting...

[vilhalmer]

If you end up tracking it down please reopen this, I'd love to document/work around/fix whatever it is.

[yshym]

Ill add a comment if find a fix
