stopped working after recent Arch update.

[jediaxe]

Has any Arch user noticed this? trying to find out which package was broken as I write this. will update if I find anything. any help is appreciated.

[phanen]

pillow 10.0 has a break changes, which make ueberzug don't work, refer to ueber-devel/ueberzug#15. Maybe you can downgrade.

[jediaxe]

Downgrading to pillow 9.5 (python-pillow 9.5 Arch package) worked.

Thank you!

[eylles]

a new release of ueberzug was pushed with the fix, please feel free to harass the distro packagers to ship it asap.

[jediaxe]

The new ueberzug release 18.2.2-1 with the fix is now live on the Arch package repo.

Edit:
There is still a bug with rendering previews of .epub files. @eylles

Error getting cover using get_cover_from_manifest: module 'PIL.Image' has no attribute 'ANTIALIAS'
Error getting cover using get_cover_by_guide: module 'PIL.Image' has no attribute 'ANTIALIAS'
Error getting cover using get_cover_by_filename: module 'PIL.Image' has no attribute 'ANTIALIAS'

[eylles]

Thanks will look into it.

took me a while, this is not an issue with ueberzug but wiht epub-thumbnailer, it needs to be updated for pillow 10

https://github.com/marianosimone/epub-thumbnailer/blob/master/src/epub-thumbnailer.py#L115

@jediaxe

[eylles]

aaaan the PR on epub-thumbnailer is up, all that rests is for it to be merged and a new release of epub-thumbnailer to be released.

marianosimone/epub-thumbnailer#41

[jediaxe]

Another fix that seems to work for .epub files is to use the gnome-epub-thumbnailer from the Arch main repo instead of epub-thumbnailer and append the preview script accordingly to use the new package.

in the preview script (vifmimg file) replace the following line

epub-thumbnailer "$6" "$PCACHE" 1024
with
gnome-epub-thumbnailer "$6" "$PCACHE" -s 1024

@eylles is there anyway we can make vifmimg preview photoshop PSD files as well?

[eylles]

uhhh dunno about you but the way i got vifm-img set up on my machine it just works with psd files, ueberzug supports them perfectly, just add .psd to the list of image formats and if that doesn't work then give me an hour or 2 and i will provide the snippets from my setup

[jediaxe]

I tried different things but no luck with .psd files so far.

[eylles]

well as long as you got:

    fileviewer <image/*>
        \ vifmimg draw %px %py %pw %ph %c
        \ %pc
        \ vifmimg clear

in your vifmrc it should work

because the important changes on my personal fork of vifmimg don't do anything to provide psd support.

[jediaxe]

I tried using your fork as well still didn't work. could it be that the Arch repo ueberzug is actually different to uberzug from the master branch? which one are you using?

Either way. to fix .psd and .svg not being displayed with vifmimg and since I am using kitty, I ended up using this script:
https://gist.github.com/ret2src/e0477a56ee272743aea9f47945073dcc
which was a solution suggested at
vifm/vifm#731

By the way the image info display at the top of image previews in your fork is really handy. great idea!

[eylles]

welp, no idea then, i'm using ueberzug from the master branch which should by all purposes be the same thing that arch packages, and in regards to terminals i'm using xterm 384 (yes, really) so this should by all mean work in any other terminal.
