Hello,
OpenMandriva Lx version: 25 Rome
Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…): KDE
Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):
The lastest GIMP 3.0 RC3 is not recognizing AVIF format.
All the other programs I am using still recognize the format so it might be a problem from GIMP itself. But considering the OM packages were recently fixed I wanted to ask here in case it is a problem on the OpenMandriva end.
Maybe someone knows how to find out where the problem really is?
Link to previous thread for Krita not displaying AVIF files.
That reminds me, I should have just made a new comment on the bug report. I just did that here:

Seems to be a OM build problem, but probably not worth fixing because it looks like they should release 3.0 soon.
