I've installed weasyprint on Elastic Beanstalk. The printing of html templates is working so far but im not able to print svg images.
Weasyprint throws the following error:
Failed to load image at "https://myurl/media/X247QAQ2IO.svg" (Could not load GDK-Pixbuf. PNG and SVG are the only image formats available.)
Do I need gdk-pixbuf to print SVGs? And if so how can I install it on Amazon Linux?
Yum does not have gdk-pixbuf2 available for installation
I found a solution that worked for me by manually building gdk-pixbuf2, My script below derived from https://gist.github.com/whyvez/1e0212a35da97aa8f1b1 where they needed to install image magic
