Description Tom C 2012-08-25 10:17:57 UTC 
When opening the attached jpg file (created with Gimp 2.8.0) Gimp crashes consistently, complaining about the jpg plugin (file-jpg.exe).
2.8.2 opens other jpg files just fine & Xnview opens his file OK.
Thought I'd better let you know.
I'd been doing some image editing before reporting the bug so I just tried double checking that it was a hard fail & the file opened twice OK & crashed the third time.

The file got lost... Please attach again. Thanks!

This time I got an error message saying that the file (at 10,071 KB) is greater than the 1,000 KB limit.

I don't want to compress or otherwise mess with it as that will probably destroy its ability to show the problem. What's the best way to send it ?

Output in 2.6.12 (not 2.8.x) is:

While parsing XMP metadata:
Error on line 42 char 1: End of element <exif:Flash> not expected in this context
** (file-jpeg:18781): WARNING **: JPEG - unable to decode XMP metadata packet

Also it has an embedded color profile that I first had to convert. The image opens without problems in 2.6.12 though. Don't have 2.8.x on this machine.
