"If you start eog with an image file name on the command line and the image is
unaccessible for eog e.g. because belonging to another user and having rights
set to 600 (as it's the case with screenshots made during the graphical 
install and you want wo view them afterwards with your freshly created normal
user), it exits with exit code zero and 
without any error message.

The same happens if you select such a file from the open dialog and try to open
it: eog exits and gives not any hint why it did that nor what caused the exit.
Besides that: If you try to open an unreadable file via the open dialog, 
the program should not exit completely but instead return to the open dialog
and showing an appropriate error 
message."
