Interestingly, when I click on the links in the bug description above to check the links are working, Firefox has the same problem as glslideshow - dsc00112.jpg is shown correctly but dsc_8639.jpg is shown rotated. In gthumb however, they are both shown correctly as portrait. Perhaps the problem lies with a library used by both glslideshow and firefox, but not by gthumb?

An example of such an image is: http://acunningham.org/photos/2012/06/10/dsc_8639.jpg Portrait pictures taken by an older camera are displayed correctly. An example if such an image is: http://acunningham.org/photos/2003/07/02/France/dsc00112.jpg This is a regression; it used to work correctly on Ubuntu 11.10.
