Package: openshot
Version: 1.4.3-1
Severity: normal
Thanks for maintaining Debian's openshot package.
I like it.
I happened to notice that running openshot on the
command line and passing it a file ending with the
uppercase extension ".JPG" throws openshot into a
loop.
For example
$ openshot file.JPG
Window after window is opened saying
"Would you like to import file.JPG as an image sequence?
Yes No"
I let it keep running for about half a minute and
it showed no sign of stopping opening windows or
of becoming usable.
I revealed openshot's PID with
$ ps aux | egrep openshot
and put it out of its misery with
$ kill -9 <PID of openshot>
A workaround for the bug is to copy or rename the
file to one with a lower case extension.
For example:
$ cp file.JPG file.jpg
$ openshot file.jpg
I hope that helps,
Kingsley
