Describe the package

Original issue:
#252

I found out that including libheif-tools only is not enough for HEIC/HEIF thumbnails to properly show up.
They disappear on reboot, or in some cases, do not appear at all.

It is something to do with libheif & its gtk-pixbuf-loader component failing to provide that functionality.

Until the issue is fixed on their side, we can use these 2 packages:

  • heif-pixbuf-loader
  • libheif-freeworld (from RPM-Fusion)

To fix these issues.

Note that libheif-tools is still needed for thumbnailing in combination of these 2.

I tested all combinations, including using normal libheif with libheif-tools & heif-pixbuf-loader, and the combination which I proposed above is the only one which works.
