gdk-pixbuf 2.36.9 can't load some JPEG images

Created attachment 359203 [details] Test program As of version 2.36.9 on Mac OS 10.11.6, gdk-pixbuf can't load at least some JPEG images. As a consequence, other programs (e.g. the image viewer qiv) can't be used anymore on JPEG files. The attached test program fails with error message ``Unable to read file: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file 'test.jpg''' when compiled against gdk-pixbuf release 2.36.9 (run as ``./a.out test.jpg''). It succeeds when compiled against gdk-pixbuf 2.36.8.

Please test with 2.36.10 and attach a full build log of gdk-pixbuf if it still fails.
In fact, you might want to test the master branch which contains the 2nd patch from: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786167
Thanks. Indeed, the problem reported here has the same cause as https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786167. I tested 2.36.10 as packaged by MacPorts with the patch patch-shared-mime-info.diff and it worked for me. I think this report can be closed.
I'll mark this as a duplicate of bug 786167 then. Thanks for testing! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 786167 ***
