Comment 4 for bug 1013587

I'm not using the "Use embedded thumbnails if available" option as there was to much missing thumbnails.

1. I tried to "recreate thyumbnails" with the last version on one picture and it works
Output :
--------------------
Forcing thumbnail creation
Creating thumbnail for Archives/GALERIE_IMAGES/archives/Reunion_de_Paysage/02.jpg /media/HDIMAGES/Archives/GALERIE_IMAGES/archives/Reunion_de_Paysage/02.jpg
Opened with GDK
---------------------

2. Then I made a selection of 9 pictures and Phraymd seems to hang on (crashed but opened)
Here what I have in the terminal :

Hum! I have made more tests and I don't understand. Sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn't. The outputs are the same as above.
In the main window, Phraymd seems to be blocked but "Select None" "deblocks it (sorry I don't know how to say that correctly!?)

You can find 3 pictures that cause the problem here : http://www.lcgsone.com/fichiers/problem_pictures.zip
