Dirk is correct: The library tries to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libheif/plugins, which doesn't exist, but is required in the libheif version in 23.04.

After creating the path, both eog and gpicview can show HEIF/HEIC files again, so this is an easy workaround.

According to Dirk's comment in https://github.com/strukturag/libheif/issues/827#issuecomment-1519070458, the package in Ubuntu should either create the path, or libheif should be upgraded to at least v1.15.0, preferably v1.15.2.
