How to have plugins in gwenview?

[Frédéric]

With F25 and F26, the plugin list in gwenview (16.12.3.2.fc26) is very
small. For example there is no panorama maker.

This is even if kf5-kipi-plugins and kf5-kipi-plugins-libs are
installed (5.6.0.1.fc26).

Why such a regression?

Any plans to have gwenview plugins working again? Is it solved in F27?

Regression compared to what?  I don't see any panorama kipi plugin  
(provided by digikam) for quite awhile at least.

It was there in F23 or F24, I do not remember exactly. Also anti-red
eye and probably others. In fact, I do not use them my-self but a
relative who was very much disappointed when I upgraded his computer
to F25.

I read somewhere that there is some uncompatibility between the kipi
plugins and current version of gwenview:

but I am not sure this is still up to date.

OK, I think may be referring to a time prior to the qt5/kf5 porting of this 
software.
