Where does this come from? I don't recognize it at a glance. > I think is clearly png. Moreover ristrettro stopped to display all > images I have tested so far. I've never heard of 'ristrettro' before, and I don't find it mentioned with 'apt-cache search'. A few of the Google results for that search term look like they may be related, but don't seem helpful in finding out what it actually is. What I was thinking of as a way to confirm whether this is a PNG is to A: first check e.g. the output of 'file' on the file, and then B: open it in an image viewer which can handle PNGs and is known working, maybe even one on a different computer. >> $ grep .-debug /etc/apt/sources.list >> #deb http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ stable-debug main >> non-free contrib > > Thanks, I never knew about those repositories, this made debugging > easier :) They're a comparatively recent addition to Debian; the idea as I understand it is to both split out the debug-symbols packages so that people who don't care about them don't need to have them show up in package searches, and make it practical to have such packages be autogenerated for all relevant packages rather than only existing if the maintainer set things up to specifically generate one. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
