Bug Description

When I open the image "test.jpg" attached, rotate it 90 degrees and try to save it gpicview terminates. For some reason it also generates an empty file of the kind "test.jpg.cnya5C" (the part after the last dot is different every time) in the same folder. Mind that this problem occurs with 90 degree rotation only, not with 180 and neither with the mirror tool. When I start gpicview form the terminal it exits with the error message "Bogus virtual array access".

- but for me it's fixed in 13.10.

Could anyone confirm that it works in a clean install of 13.10?

I had to reinstall 13.10 a couple of weeks ago due to a failure of my SSD. Here the bug is still reproduceable always.

I think I made a mistake writing it was fixed in 13.10. 'Save as' works, not 'save'.

The bug is still in 14.04.
