Public bug reported:
I was browsing the images in /usr/share/backgrounds. All show a
thumbnail in Nautilus.
However, using eog to dispay /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-
ubuntu.png gives an error message:
"Could not load image 'warty-final-ubuntu.png'. Fatal error reading PNG
image file: Not a PNG file"
Apparently this file is called *.png, but is actually a jpg.
I don't see any reason why eog can't display it anyway, since it's still
an image file, and it can see that by looking at its magic number.
