• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED INVALID

[Description Sergey 'L29Ah' Alirzaev 2010-03-18 13:31:39 UTC]

... those open successfully using qiv-2.2.2

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
$ qiv microphone-mount.jpeg 
Unable to read file: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file 'microphone-mount.jpeg'
$ file microphone-mount.jpeg 
microphone-mount.jpeg: JPEG image data, EXIF standard 2.2

What version of x11-libs/gtk+ ?

This upstream change is likely why,

[tw] use gdk_pixbuf to autorotate with EXIF tags instead
     of libexif. Note: needs at least GDK 2.12

Before that, in 2.2.2, it used libexif directly

Please report this to upstream authors

In other hand, it could also be bad jpeg upgrade, please make sure you have done both,

revdep-rebuild --library libjpeg.so.62
revdep-rebuild --library libjpeg.so.7

i found out that was because of me compiling gtk+ w/ USE=-jpeg :)
there should have been a notification or something :3

image viewer + graphical toolkit = should use desktop profile and get jpeg enabled by default

and if not using desktop profile, then you should know what you're doing :)
