	gallery-app (Ubuntu)	Fix Released	Medium	Arthur Mello

Bug Description

current build number: 41
device name: krillin
channel: ubuntu-touch/rc/bq-aquaris.en

Test Case:
1. Create a tgz file in the Pictures directory
$ tar czf ~/Pictures/test.tgz ~/Pictures/com.ubuntu.camera/
2. Open the gallery app

Actual Result:
The gallery app shows a blank preview corresponding to the tgz, if you tap on it, there is a black screen and the spinner keeps spinning.
If there is an SD Card, the gallery tries to read tgz from it even if they are not in a Pictures directory:
file:///usr/share/click/preinstalled/com.ubuntu.gallery/2.9.1.1260/rc/qml/MediaViewer/SingleMediaViewer.qml:157:17: QML Image: Failed to get image from provider: image://photo/file:///media/phablet/Médias SDc/backup/phablet.20150702.tgz

Expected Result
the tgz is not visible in the gallery

mediascanner correctly identifies the file as not being a video or audio file
New file was created: /home/phablet/Pictures/test.tgz.
Error when adding new file: File /home/phablet/Pictures/test.tgz is not audio or video

This bug was fixed in the package gallery-app - 0.0.67+16.04.20160426-0ubuntu1

---------------
gallery-app (0.0.67+16.04.20160426-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Add linker flag to strip gallery-app binary file (LP: #1570616)
  * Add proper ngettext-style plural forms (LP: #1551149)
  * Check MimeType to verify if it's an image format before adding to
    gallery's collection (LP: #1536168)
  * If there is a .nomedia file ignores all files and dirs bellow the
    current path (LP: #1568310)
  * Stop using C++ Content Hub API and use QML one instead (LP:
    #1568857)
  * Use Settings instead of StateSaver to open gallery always on the
    last tab viewed (LP: #1560159)
  * Wait gallery ends collection processing before loading events model
    on picker mode (LP: #1569844)
