Package: yafaray
Version: 0.1.2+really0.1.2~beta5-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm attempting to use yafaray from the commandline (yafaray-xml).
Also saw the problem below with the wheezy version, but updated
to the experimental version just to check whether that fixed it.

The test file below yafarayRender.xml is linked from
  http://www.yafaray.org/community/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=3204
unzipped to /tmp but I don't think its content affects anything
below.

First attempt:

$ yafaray-xml /tmp/yafarayRender/yafarayRender.xml 
INFO: YafaRay (None)
INFO: The plugin path is: /usr/lib/yafaray/yafaray
INFO: Environment: Loading plugins ...
ERROR: Environment: There is no image handlers registrered
ERROR: Couldn't find any valid image format, image handlers missing?

OK... well /usr/lib/yafaray/yafaray doesn't exist,
but the package seems to provide a bunch of stuff in
/usr/lib/yafaray/plugins
and the man page describes a -p option which sets the path.

So try:

$ yafaray-xml -p /usr/lib/yafaray/plugins /tmp/yafarayRender/yafarayRender.xml 
INFO: YafaRay (None)
INFO: The plugin path is: /usr/lib/yafaray/yafaray
INFO: Environment: Loading plugins ...
ERROR: Environment: There is no image handlers registrered
ERROR: Couldn't find any valid image format, image handlers missing?

or

$ yafaray-xml -p /usr/lib/yafaray /tmp/yafarayRender/yafarayRender.xml 
INFO: YafaRay (None)
INFO: The plugin path is: /usr/lib/yafaray/yafaray
INFO: Environment: Loading plugins ...
ERROR: Environment: There is no image handlers registrered
ERROR: Couldn't find any valid image format, image handlers missing?

but no joy either way.
Since the /usr/lib/yafaray/plugins directory does contain
a bunch of .so libs with jpeg/png/ppm/tga in the name, I'm
guessing there are suitable "image handlers" there, if only
the default path was right or could be set.

Haven't tried using yafaray from blender at all.

Thanks for any attention this gets.

Wrong.
The correct parameter to use is -pp and:

 $ yafaray-xml -pp /usr/lib/yafaray/plugins <path-to-file>/yafarayRender.xml

works fine here.

So, closing.

Cheers.
