Bug Description
I have had multiple problems with an upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS.
This specific issue involves multiple errors from GTK and other glib applications not being able to process .png files.
The crash files refer to
GError: Unrecognized image file format.
GError: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file
etc. All files referred to are .png
Running gtk applications such as gimp produces a long list or warnings of the nature:
Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'edit-cut' for stock: Unrecognized image file format
The images load fine in gimp as images. As icons, nothing loads.
I have reinstalled glib and libpng to no effect.
