Multi-touch rotates the wrong way

[Alexander Hunziker]

I am using an Apple Magic Trackpad with my Ubuntu system. I can rotate images in eog using the trackpad by performing a "turn" gesture. However, the image is rotated in the wrong direction.

I can see this antirotation too.

Thank you for your bug report.

Sorry Chase, assigning to you because I'm not sure what component or team to subscribe there, could you triage it?

This is fairly obvious when you have an image that doesn't look similar depending on which way you rotate it :). That was why I never really saw this issue.

This does not occur in evince, so it's likely not an issue with libgrip. Thus, I'm returning the bug to eog. A small patch to change rotation direction should fix this up.

This bug was fixed in the package eog - 3.1.92-0ubuntu2
