*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 172416 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172416 @Kushal This is happening because eog uncritically assumes filetype from filename. Most other modern image viewers look inside the image file to figure out what kind of image it is, which is why they do not have this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773368 Title: Could not open certain PNG images Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: eog Fails to open certain PNG images, and worst is the case as Ubuntu's default wallpaper i.e. 'warty-final-ubuntu.png' is itself impossible to open.

The original reporter (Kushal) indicates that this bug still occurs with Precise, so I am changing this back from Expired to New. @Kushal Can you attach a few .png images (or at least one) that cause this problem on your system, and a few .png images (or at least one) that do not? Such attachments may make it a lot easier to figure out what is going wrong. Please also add technical information to this bug about your current system by opening a Terminal window (Ctrl+Alt+T) and running: apport-collect 773368 ** Changed in: eog (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => New ** Tags added: precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773368 Title: Could not open certain PNG images Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: eog Fails to open certain PNG images, and worst is the case as Ubuntu's default wallpaper i.e. 'warty-final-ubuntu.png' is itself impossible to open.
