VIPS is an image processing system designed with efficiency in mind. It is good with large images (ones that larger than the amount of RAM in your machine), and for working with colour. It can perform many image manipulation tasks much faster than other packages such as ImageMagick and the GIMP and includes some special features such as creating single “mosaic” images from multiple parts.

VIPS consists of two main components: an image processing library with some command-line tools and a spreadsheet-like graphical user interface. The graphical interface is available in the nip2 package.

This package includes several command-line utilities that make it possible to use some vips functionality from shell scripts or the command line.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install libvips-tools

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.
