When trying to open the attached .jpg file in the "open file..." dialog, Inkscape attempts to preview the file which causes a hard crash.
The file was made with a digital camera whose xd-card sometimes corrupts the picture files. I have a couple more of these files if that help.
The crash does not occur when drag-and-dropping the file to Inkscape but then nothing happens (because the file is corrupt)
2 things follow from this:
- corrupt jpg files probably throw an exception that is not caught
- drag and dropping corrupt files should cause an error message, not just "nothing", which could confuse users.
