eog gives wrong error message for missing file

[Lars Noodén]

If eog is fed a missing file, it reports that no images were found in the file, rather than that the file itself is missing. This happens every time eog is fed a missing file via the shell, but only via the shell not the menus.

Say the file "/home/user/Pictures/foo.jpeg" does not exist but eog is launched in the shell using "eog /home/user/Pictures/foo.jpeg" it will produce the error below:

 No images found in file:///home/user/Pictures/foo.jpeg

It should report that the file is not found instead of implying that the file exists but does not contain image data.
