Bug Description

Binary package hint: eog

EOG can't open the image attached when f-spot and others can. It shows the following error message:

"Error al interpretar el archivo gráfico JPEG (Not a JPEG file: starts with 0x42 0x4d)"

In english it would mean more or less: "Failed to read the JPEG file (...)"

Thanks for your report, file on the photo you attached returns: "wallpaper_ridge_racer_7_02_1280.jpg: PC bitmap data, Windows 3.x format, 1280 x 1024 x 24" it's a bmp file. If you rename the file to be .bmp it works fine and that's a known eog bug, thanks.
