Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: eog

changing the extension of a jpg file to png makes eye of gnome refuse to
open it. e.g. the well known warty-final-ubuntu.png files do not open
because they are jpegs. renaming the file to somthing else (preferrably
*.jpg) resolves the problem.

filetype detection should not depend on the name/extension.

expected behavoir: show the picture
actual behavior: strange message (see screenshot)
