Error while converting webp image file to jpg in python
Question: I have written small program to convert **webp** to jpg in python

    
    
    import imghdr
    from PIL import Image
    
    im = Image.open("unnamed.webp").convert("RGB")
    im.save("test.jpg","jpeg")
    

when executing it gives me following error

    
    
    No handlers could be found for logger "PIL.ImageFile"
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "webptopng.py", line 3, in <module>
        im = Image.open("unnamed.webp").convert("RGB")
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 2286, in open
        % (filename if filename else fp))
    IOError: cannot identify image file 'unnamed.webp'
    

I have installed pillow with webp capability. Here is my pillow installation
