Bug Description

Binary package hint: eog

When EOG opens images that are bigger than the screen's vertical resolution it fails to scale the image properly to make it fit visible area of the screen. It only happens when EOG is opened by clicking directly on an image. If EOG is opened first and then an image is loaded it is correctly scaled down to fit EOGs window.

The problem occurs only for some width and height proportions. Some real life examples:
1590x1583 - wrong scaling
1533x1497 - wrong scaling
1510x1523 - OK
1480x1480 - OK
3225x1600 - OK

This would suggest that this problem occurs only for images where width is in some small amount bigger than height :/

I don't know if this is related but I get the following error when I run eog from terminal:
(eog:8038): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_object: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_OBJECT (value)' failed
