Bug#459839: Fails to open png with jpg extension

[Matthias Bläsing]

Package: eog
Version: 2.20.3-1
Severity: wishlist

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Hello,

I think eog should determine the file format by using the magic codes,
if the direct approach via the extension fails. I had the situation,
that I hat a png, that was named problem.jpg. This is what I got:

"Bild »problem.jpg« konnte nicht geöffnet werden.

Fehler beim Lesen einer JPEG-Bilddatei (Not a JPEG file: starts with
0x89 0x50)"

And translated:

"Picture »problem.jpg« could not be opened.

Error  while reading an JPEG-Imagefile (...)"

Ironicly nautilus happly produced a thumbnail.

Thanks

Matthias
