Bug Description
* Impact
The webp format is getting more popular, having the gdk-pixbuf loader available in the archive would make easier for users to enable it (as a first step, we might also want to consider enable it by default)
* Testcase
1. Install webp-pixbuf-loader
2. Use nautilus to browser a directory with webp images, they should be previewed
3. Start eog, select the open option and select a webp image, it should be displayed
* Regression potential
The package is new and not installed by default so it shouldn't have any impact.
Install it then verify that it's not creating issues in nautilus, eog or other gtk based viewers loading icons. Other formats should keep working as before.
