Package: gwenview
Version: 1.2.0-1

The version of gwenview in Sarge does not appear to save any changes made to a JPEG when brightness controls are used. For example, I use gwenview to edit a file, then use control-B or control-shift-B to either increase or decrease brightness a very noticeable amount. I then save the result (File-Save). The next time I go into the file with gwenview, the changes I made are not reflected in the file. To confirm that the brightness has not changed, I use ImageMagick display to view the file and it seems to be the same as the original. Here is an example:

host> ls -l
total 60
-rw-------  1 myuser mygroup 54542 2006-06-05 10:15 magtape_orig.jpg

host> cp magtape_orig.jpg magtape.jpg

host> ls -l
total 120
-rw-------  1 myyser mygroup 54542 2006-06-05 10:17 magtape.jpg
-rw-------  1 myuser mygroup 54542 2006-06-05 10:15 magtape_orig.jpg

host> gwenview magtape.jpg

I edit the brightness a very noticeable amount and save the result via File/Save.

host> ls -l
total 120
-rw-------  1 myuser mygroup 54566 2006-06-05 10:19 magtape.jpg
-rw-------  1 myuser mygroup 54542 2006-06-05 10:15 magtape_orig.jpg


host> gwenview magtape.jpg

The picture appears unchanged. I can confirm this visually with the ImageMagick display command. The file size has changed a little bit. We can tell that gwenview File/Save is doing *something*, but the brightness changes are not appearing to save.

host> diff magtape.jpg magtape_orig.jpg
Binary files magtape.jpg and magtape_orig.jpg differ

                                        Thank you,

                                        Thomas Wallis
