Animated gif embedded in msg email triggers gifToPix exception

I get many of these errors:

org.apache.tika.exception.TikaException: TesseractOCRParser bad exit value 1 err msg: Error in gifToPix: failed to read GIF data
Error in pixReadStreamGif: failed to read gif from file data
Error in pixReadStream: gif: no pix returned
Error in pixRead: pix not read
Error during processing.

at org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRParser.doOCR(TesseractOCRParser.java:412)
...etc...

The common theme among all of the files producing these errors is that they are Outlook msg files with embedded animated gifs.

I looked at opening a ticket for Tesseract but I recall their site said something like please open a ticket with the software that uses Tesseract first in case it's a configuration problem or something.

Any which way, I think animated gifs should just be ignored. I get hundreds of these errors.

Thank you. Good luck.
