Benjamin Eltzner proposed the following answer:
Hi,

as far as I (and the allmighty Google) know, gif is not supported by
Latex. The default way to achieve animation in Latex is apparently the
usage of the "animate" package and command. However, it seems that
animations created in this way rely on functionality of Acrobat Reader
that is not present in the Poppler library (underlying qpdfview),
probably Javascript support. So as long as the Poppler library does not
provide support for javascript, Latex animations will probably not work
in any of evince, okular and qpdfview.

The relevant Poppler wishlist item is here:
