When I try to use kitty +kitten icat, I receive the following error:

➜ ~ kitty +kitten icat image.jpeg 
Failed to open image: image.jpeg with error: identify: no decode delegate for this image format `JPEG' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/741.

Yes image.jpeg is the name of the file I' trying to open and it is in my home directory.

I am able to open an image in Terminology with tycat. But I am not able to do it with Neofetch.

I've tried numerous different terminal, and messing around with ImageMagik. I have done research on this and havne't been able to find a solution. I have tried this with multiple image types and images. Nothing has worked so far. The neofetch always returns blank.

  • Does it open directly in Imagemagick? Commented Jan 30, 2023 at 2:13

  • Does convert your_image.suffix your_image.gif work in command line Imagemagick. Commented Jan 30, 2023 at 3:30
  • No. I get this error: ➜ ~ convert image.png image.gif convert: no decode delegate for this image format PNG' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/741. convert: no images defined image.gif' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3342. ➜ ~ Commented Jan 30, 2023 at 13:04
  • What do you get from convert -version? Does it include PNG in the list of Delegates. If not, you need to install the libpng delegate and recompile IM or get a binary that includes PNG Commented Jan 30, 2023 at 17:21
