GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 320662
jpeg plugin segfaults when opening certain images
Last modified: 2008-01-15 13:02:07 UTC
When I try to open certain images in the GIMP from my Pentax Optio S30 digital camera, an error is displayed. The console gives the message /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/jpeg: fatal error: Segmentation fault I've never had this problem before with my previous (Gentoo) installation, which might suggest it could be, say, libjpeg. But no other programs (Firefox, krita, ...) have any problem with these images. Note: I use Linux From Scratch (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org), with the stable 6.1 instructions
Created attachment 54298 [details] Example image that causes segfault
Works fine here. Could be a duplicate of bug 300186, please check.

No bugs turned up when I searched for jpeg, but I guess search is case-sensitive.
And the CVS version of libexif cured the problem.
