Bug#1040749: rifle: imv from renameutils breaks image opening

[Christopher Bock]

Package: ranger
Version: 1.9.3-5
Severity: minor

I was wondering for a while now why i couldn't open images from ranger.

cb@asterix ~ % grep imv /etc/ranger/config/rifle.conf
mime ^image, has imv, X, flag f = imv -- "$@"
cb@asterix ~ % ls -fla ~/.config/ranger
total 10
drwxr-xr-x 2 cb cb 2 Jul 10 03:52 .
drwxr-xr-x 119 cb cb 164 Jul 10 03:52 ..
cb@asterix ~ % rifle -l ~/snips/maim_20230710-032739.png
0::f:imv -- "$@"
1::f:pqiv -- "$@"
2::f:sxiv -- "$@"
3::f:feh -- "$@"
4::f:gpicview -- "$@"
5::f:gimp -- "$@"
11:wallpaper::feh --bg-scale "$1"
12:wallpaper::feh --bg-tile "$1"
13:wallpaper::feh --bg-center "$1"
14:wallpaper::feh --bg-fill "$1"
15:open::xdg-open -- "$@"
16:open::open -- "$@"
17:::ask
18:editor::${VISUAL:-$EDITOR} -- "$@"
19:pager::"$PAGER" -- "$@"
20:trash::mkdir -p -- ${XDG_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.ranger}/ranger-trash;
mv -- "$@" ${XDG_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.ranger}/ranger-trash
cb@asterix ~ % dpkg -S /usr/bin/imv
renameutils: /usr/bin/imv

And after looking at the description of 'imv' it becomes clear that we
should use the wrapper /usr/libexec/imv/imv instead.

cb@asterix ~ % cp /etc/ranger/config/rifle.conf
~/.config/ranger/rifle.conf cb@asterix ~ % vim
~/.config/ranger/rifle.conf cb@asterix ~ % grep imv-folder
~/.config/ranger/rifle.conf mime ^image, has imv-x11, X, flag f =
/usr/libexec/imv/imv -- "$@" cb@asterix ~ % rifle -l
~/snips/maim_20230710-032739.png 0::f:/usr/libexec/imv/imv -- "$@"
1::f:pqiv -- "$@"
2::f:sxiv -- "$@"
3::f:feh -- "$@"
4::f:gpicview -- "$@"
5::f:gimp -- "$@"
11:wallpaper::feh --bg-scale "$1"
12:wallpaper::feh --bg-tile "$1"
13:wallpaper::feh --bg-center "$1"
14:wallpaper::feh --bg-fill "$1"
15:open::xdg-open -- "$@"
16:open::open -- "$@"
17:::ask
18:editor::${VISUAL:-$EDITOR} -- "$@"
19:pager::"$PAGER" -- "$@"
20:trash::mkdir -p -- ${XDG_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.ranger}/ranger-trash;
mv -- "$@" ${XDG_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.ranger}/ranger-trash

And now it works even when i uninstall imv again \o/.
