"Open with fspot" fails when file has no extension

[oddentity]

Binary package hint: f-spot

Rename a jpg file in Nautilus so it has no file extension, e.g. rename "test.jpg" to "test" .

Right click on that file in Nautilus and click "Open with F-Spot."

On my system, fspot does not open the file but instead displays a black box with a red circle in the middle.

I'm not sure whether this should be raised as a fspot problem or a Nautilus one, but Nautilus has no trouble showing me the thumbnail of a picture with no extension, and it opens fine in eog when I just double click on it. Also, if I try and edit from eog by clicking the "Edit Image" button on the toolbar, I get the same problem.

I'm using Lucid with default repositories enabled (no ppas) and all updates applied.
