Gwenview, Okular, Ark can't open jxl files

I just migrated back from Manjaro to Artix and noticed none of my jxl image files I have can be opened with any of the image viewers of KDE. It just says Loading .jxl failed.
You can try by converting a jpg file using "cjxl imagefile.jpg imagefile.jxl"
It worked on Manjaro with the older versions of the software.

Hello,
you might need to install "libjxl" package.

Code: [Select]
$ yay jpegxl

Yes, after installing qt5-jpegxl-image-plugin it works now.

I've seen lots of packages that are missing from the repos (including universal). Like lshw, bleachbit, audacious, lutris, foliate, pinta etc. etc. I mean telegram-qt is in the repo but telegram-desktop is missing, which doesn't make any sense to me.
Adding the Arch repos fixes this somewhat, but I don't understand why there's so many missing packages.

Arch User Repository (AUR) is user-produced. There is significantly more packages in it than in official repositories. Packages in AUR are not curated nor undergoing any kind of review by the Arch team (hence one must exercise caution when installing packages from AUR). Only packages approved by Trusted Users (TUs) enter the official repositories.

Artix mostly includes packages from the Arch official repositories, but there are exceptions.

Universe and omniverse are not among the official Artix repositories, but are maintained by Artix team members. The decision of whether to include some package or not in universe/omniverse is their own. Again, those are unofficial repositories.

I remember I switched back to Manjaro because I wanted to flash my phone and couldn't get ADB to work.

telegram-desktop, lshw and audacious are available in the omniverse repo
