Try: $ eog /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png Don't make excuses for stupid bug. It's not an excuse. It's a fact. More importantly, the Ubuntu release name is no longer warty either, so that alone should give you some insight on why it is still named the way it is. How about simply making it actually be a .png instead of a JPEG (so that it will be a higher quality image, as JPEG compression tends to result in artifacts, particularly when scaling). Furthermore, as already stated, this is a bug in eog (or perhaps gdk-pixbuf), if it can't open an image file where the extension doesn't match the content. While it would be nice to rename the file in question, it would be nicer to fix eog to not fail in such situations. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

It just had a release a few months ago so I wouldn't consider it abandoned and planned replacement doesn't mean the death of it, it could be months, maybe even years before it's replacement is finished and approved but even then somebody should track the bug and make sure the case still isn't the same. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
