Bug Description

eog /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png

Results in "Fatal error reading PNG image file: Not a PNG file"

Renaming s/.png/.jpg/

Makes it work.

Note that $ file /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png
Is not confused and correctly detects that file as being jpeg.

Can't open some other PNG files too, it's not just from opening Default Ubuntu Wallpaper from /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png

Some PNG files open, some others don't, I don't know if it's something to do with the way PNG images get saved that Ubuntu can't read them. I think this should be classed as Medium Priority, I do graphic work on Ubuntu and it's annoying I can't open PNG files because of this bug.
