Apologies I'm away until mid-May without access to an x86 Linux machine. Will update to 1.8.8 (or whatever the latest version is) when I'm back.

I am too lazy to write up whole wiki page about xnviewmp, but if you want to use dark theme (IMHO a must on OLED displays) this worked for me:
https://github.com/bananakid/xnviewmp-w10-qss
Download xnviewmp-w10-qss-1.0.0.zip and unpack dm/xnview.ini and dm/style_sheet.qss to ~/.config/xnviewmp, (backup your ini first)
dm/default.bar is optional as it only enables/disables items and their position in top bar

@flan_suse: it seems sensible, but in fact I don't see XnView using libheif: lsof /usr/lib/libheif.so.1.18.2 returns nothing, even though I've got XnView opened and displaying a sample HEIF image. So I wonder if HEIF support isn't built into XnView, in fact.
@jrichard326: good point!

According to Help-About-Formats: HEIF can be read, but cannot write/export. I think that is the intended support. I have libheif installed and am running xfce.

@Corax: Perhaps add libheif as an optdepends?
Corax commented on 2024-10-19 21:08 (UTC)
@bearbee: you may want to retry with 1.8.2 (just updated the package). The changelog says that libheif has been updated to 1.18.2. I'm not quite sure what that means since XnView doesn't bundle libheif, but at least it matches the version we have on Arch.

It seems like there is a problem with heic files support. There is no way to export / save / convert image to HEIC format. According to https://forum.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=194874&sid=64e93bc39ffa900df4b762214d6400c6#p194874 XnViewMP has HEIC support on Linux with installed libheif. I have libheif installed but it does not help.
Any ideas how to fix it?

@Raphis It was probably changed (without using a new filename) by Pierre, upstream.
You're correct. The PKGBUILD needs to be updated (again) to use the correct hash.
EDIT: Indeed. The file (with the same name) was modified on the XnView server on 2024/09/02. Even though this PKGBUILD was updated two days earlier on 2024/08/31, for the same exact version: 1.8.0.

Hi, the SHA256 checksum is wrong for the current 1.8.0-1 release. Changing it in the build files allows the installation, this is the correct one: 35182740675ddab0a51ad20e14f31b258a3126bb136b766210d5eeb31eaa5de3

@Mr.Spock: This is most likely an issue with upstream XnView, best to file a bug report here: https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewforum.php?f=62

If makepkg fails because the checksum is incorrect, please flag the package out-of-date and I will update the PKGBUILD.
The PKGBUILD now references the latest versioned archive, as a result of which it should keep working if a new version is released. However, upstream sometimes updates released archives in place, in which case the checksum will fail and a manual intervention is required.
