gallery not properly displaying photos imported from content-hub

[taiebot65]

Ok this is quite easy to reproduce but not easy to explain.

Use case i download something, dismiss it, open a new app try to open the stuff i have downloaded via the other app, the content is missing.

How to reproduce launch the webbrowser app
download any image > content hub appears
select gallery app > notification appears
Dismiss the download

Open telegram app
start a chat
Click on the attachement icon and select photo > content-hub appears
Select gallery app > application is launched.

What i should expect is the downloaded image above can be selected but it is not.

I need to start the gallery app not via the content-hub to see the new image downloaded added

That's likely a gallery-app issue with the index refresh done only when started standalone

un-duping this as I believe it's a separate issue..
Problem I'm seeing is this:
1) make sure gallery is not running
2) open browser and download an image
3) select gallery
4) when download complete press "dismiss" button
5) open shell and verify .cache/com.ubuntu.gallery/HubIncoming/X exists and downloaded file lives there
6) open gallery

Expected result:
The photo which was downloaded should appear in gallery

Actual result:
The photo does not always show up in gallery (sometimes it does)
Seems there is a race condition as it only works a small amount of the time. After gallery is opened the file is cleared from HubIncoming directory, so I believe there is an issue with the initial loading and displaying of files found in HubIncoming.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

this problem only seems to happen when an non-supported photo (like an svg) is downloaded. In this case, it is never displayed in gallery. With the fix from bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gallery-app/+bug/1452572, I cannot reproduce this issue

This bug was fixed in the package gallery-app - 0.0.67+15.10.20150923-0ubuntu1

---------------
gallery-app (0.0.67+15.10.20150923-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ Arthur Mello ]
  * Do not ignore file if gallery is not able to read its metadata. Add
    libqt5svg5 as build dep to run unittests. (LP: #1452572, #1470638)
  * Request only one thumbnail to be displayed at SingleMediaViewer to
    avoid reloading at fullscreen toggle (LP: #1494383)

  [ CI Train Bot ]
  * New rebuild forced.
