There is actually a helpful error message too, but it's on a file
descriptor which ended up being redirected so we don't get to see it,
maybe report this upstream? (See ktrace snippets below).
I would rather not add a bunch of RUN_DEPENDS, especially as some
of the possibilities aren't in the tree at all, and others are of quite
limited use, rather I would specifically mention in DESCR the names of
the packages you can install to support additional formats. I'm OK with
importing it with that change.
