[Bug 1403205] Re: Gallery does not handle .gif files

 

Gallery seems to ignore photo files that do not have a proper metadata
or that are not using one of the formats supported by QImageWriter. I am
proposing a MR that makes gallery display those files, but since the
editing options (rotate, crop, auto enhance) seem not work at all on
files that are not supported by QImageWriter, I am disabling the editing
options for those files.
