What is the file-gegl file type?

In plug-ins/common is the file file-gegl.c. What is file-gegl.c? I don't see any file types in "File/Open" that would seem to correspond to file-gegl.c.

Well, there is the option to open an OpenEXR image. But isn't exr handled by plug-ins/file-exr/file-exr.c?

Oh, sorry. I was thinking of RGBE (Radiance HDR) actually :)

And no, I wasn't :) Sorry about the noise.

EXR was indeed loaded via file-gegl until 2013 when Mukund wrote a separate plugin for that. Saving EXR files is done via file-gegl though, apparently. So is loading/exporting WebP, as far as I can tell.

Looking at the code in file-gegl.c, maybe this file is needed to open a WebP file?

Hmm, I think our emails crossed. Anyway, the code does make it look like like WebP needs file-gegl (I don't see a separate plug-in file for webp), but I don't have any such files to check.

But I did try compiling GIMP without compiling the file-gegl plug-in, and was able to open and also export an OpenEXR file without problems. So it doeesn't look like file-gegl is needed for opening or exporting exr files (though now that you mention it, it definitely was needed in the past).
