Eye of Gnome "Save as" different image type only works if you manually change the extension of the file before saving

[joopbraak]

Binary package hint: eog

For instance, I have a BMP file, open it, do "Save as", choose something other then BMP. Eog doesn't change the extension automatically, and if you don't change it manually before saving, the extension stays BMP and the file itself is also still a BMP file !

If I for instance change the extension to JPG before saving as JPG, it works like it should.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
