Description Bryan Hundven 2005-12-27 23:16:07 UTC
Overview Description & Steps to Reproduce:

  Open an image taken with a digital camera in EOG. View the exif info. Yeay.
  Right click on the same image in a nautilus file browser. Click on properties. 
  Click on the 'Image' tab. "Failed to load image information"

Expected Results:

  The 'Image' tab in the file properties for nautilus should show the same info
  that EOG showed.

Build Date & Platform:

  Dec 27 22:58(PST) nautilus-2.12.2

Additional Information:

  No crashing or nautilus restart occurs. Just the error in the 'Image' tab.

  (yes.. My USE is unwieldily. I know.)

An ss of the error.
Comment 2 Daniel Gryniewicz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-29 15:01:34 UTC
Try re-emerging nautilus.  It works fine here.  (revdep-rebuild may help here)
Comment 3 Bryan Hundven 2005-12-30 03:36:25 UTC
Remerged nautilus. No change.
Ran revdep-rebuild. No packages rebuilt.
Problem persists.

Comment 4 John N. Laliberte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-30 19:36:35 UTC
cannot reproduce here either, can you provide a link to a picture this happens with so we can try with a specific picture?  Thanks
Comment 5 Bryan Hundven 2005-12-30 20:24:51 UTC
I emailed John (comment #4) the picture I used in my screenshot.
Comment 6 John N. Laliberte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-31 05:54:57 UTC
okay, with that image, i have the same problem.

for reference, here is the link to the picture.
http://dev.gentoo.org/~allanonjl/images/100_0733.jpg

does this happen with all images from that camera?

we'll take a look at the code to see what situations would cause that to be displayed.
Comment 7 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-31 08:33:32 UTC
Hmm, this looks like an upstream bug.  I can reproduce the behaviour with that image here,  (exiftags reports the tags correctly)  but I cannot reproduce it with any of my own pictures.
Comment 8 Bryan Hundven 2006-01-02 14:15:38 UTC
Added url to more images made by this camera.
Comment 9 Bryan Hundven 2006-01-12 07:52:11 UTC
changed site from https to http
Comment 10 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 01:07:02 UTC
is it really unco ?
Comment 11 Bryan Hundven 2006-10-29 12:53:06 UTC
I'm unable to reproduce this bug anymore.
Does someone from the team need to close this, or should I?
Comment 12 Arif Lukito 2006-10-29 21:00:06 UTC
I still able to reproduce it with some pics.
Comment 13 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-30 01:16:39 UTC
could you post some of the pics somewhere, I'm getting a 503 from the URL field.
Comment 14 Bryan Hundven 2006-10-30 03:31:19 UTC
I opened this bug almost a year ago. I've since gotten rid of my cheapo camera and I do not have those pictures anymore as the harddrive I had then is no longer with us.

My new camera (FujiFilm FinePix S602Zoom) has no problem with exif alone or with nautilus.

If you note in comment #6 that John posted the image to his dev page. This is one of the images. (good thinkin' John!)

There is also a screenshot attached to this bug with the model number (Kodak DX7630) of the camera in it. You can probably go to some cheap strip mall retail store and get it for a little over $40 USD.

As a side note, is it possible for me to be removed from being emailed about this bug? I've been rolling my own distro since 04/2006, which is in no way related to this bug or gentoo.

TIA,

-Bryan
Comment 15 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-30 03:49:15 UTC
ok, I can confirm this bug is still present :
gnome-base/nautilus-2.16.1
media-libs/libexif-0.6.13-r1

Bryan: as you are the reporter, I guess the bug needs to be closed.
Comment 16 Stian Skjelstad 2007-12-05 12:15:55 UTC
Does anybody have any samples of files that should fail? Both libexif and nautilus has new releases since this bug was reported. 
Comment 17 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2008-03-29 12:47:05 UTC
This bug is fixed for me on gnome-2.20, I think that can be safely closed
Comment 18 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-03-30 08:56:57 UTC
Closing then. Gilles, I'll let you reopen the bug if need be, since you were able to reproduce that bug.
Comment 19 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-03-30 10:39:24 UTC
confirming wrt to comment #5 back in the days :)
