Description: gthumb has an extension that show the location where a photo was taken on a map (map-view). This used to be available when the gthumb-package was installed from extra, now it is gone. It is still available when installing gthumb-git from aur.

Steps to reproduce: Open github, check extensions, see that "Map" is not there. Also, the corresponding library is missing (/usr/lib/gthumb/extensions/libmap_view.so). Install from aur, check extensions, see that "Map" is there.

Support for the map widget (libchamplain) was removed here [1] for reasons not explained in the commit message.

GThumb needs libsoup 2 while our libchamplain needs libsoup 3.
