Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus-image-converter
I think it doesn’t update the exif data concerning orientation
correctly. A rotated picture will look fine if you are using a "dumb"
viewer that doesn't support exif. It looks wrong when using a viewer
that uses the exif orientation data. I think the cause is that the
"smart" viewer rotates the picture according to the exif data. This
results in the picture being rotated twice, once by the script and once
by the viewer, resulting in a wrongly rotated picture.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Take a picture with the camera up right (a camera with a gyroscope
like canon IXUS75).
2. Rotate the picture 90 degrees to make it stand correct.
3. View the photo with eog (double click it in Nautilus)
The picture will be rotated twice when viewing it with eog. This will
make it stand wrong.
This could be fixed by updating the exif data.
