Regression in Dolphin and Gwenview of KDE 6/qt6

Hi,

It might be that Artix has some missing compilation (as before, opposed to Arch where things simply worked) dependancies.

So long story short: Artix KDE 6

WebP:
* Dolphin: Zero support for WebP images. Missing support for Webp. No thumbs
* Gwenview: Zero support for Webp Images. Does not display at all.

AVIF:
* Dolphin: Zero support for AVIF images. Missing support for AVIF. No thumbs
* Gwenview: works, thumbnails and displaying supported.

All seems installed  and O.K. after upgrade:
pacman -Qs kimageformats --->  local/kimageformats 6.0.0-2 (kf6)
pacman -Qs avif ---> local/libavif 1.0.4-1 & local/libheif 1.17.6-3
pacman -Qs webp ---> local/libwebp 1.3.2-1 & local/webp-pixbuf-loader 0.2.7-1

My guess is, its the same compilation error as before (missing support for avif and webp). It happened before on Artix, while Arch and other derivatives (Endevearur, Cachy, Manjaro did not miss AVIF or other format support in kimageformats...).

You've made this guess | assumption | error | statement before and, if I recall correctly, you were wrong then. I think I told you ?
I happened to have the alhp's packages of kimageformats, libwebp & libavif (KDE 6) installed but just swapped them for the Artix versions and restarted X. Everything you say doesn't work does work. Maybe I'm just lucky ?

Can you see thumbnails in Dolphin for the following small photos
1. webp --> cannot display in gwenview, no thumbs in Dolphin.
2. avif ---> can display in gwenview and see thumbnails in gwenview, but cannot see thumbnails in dolphin

I have this:
various pacman -Qs

local/libwebp 1.3.2-1
local/webp-pixbuf-loader 0.2.7-1
local/libavif 1.0.4-1
local/kimageformats 6.0.0-2 (kf6)
ocal/kimageformats5 5.115.0-2 (kf5) --> not in conflict, removing this and cleaning .cache makes no difference.

Got thumbnailer from the beginning, but still not thumbnails in Dolphin KDE6. The above answers are not from KDE,, but other DEs and not from Dolphin, so they are irrelevant.
