Public bug reported: Binary package hint: eog
older versions supported HTTP URLs as [FILE...] argument using eog v2.22.3 on ubuntu hardy (8.04.1) ~$ eog --version GNOME eog 2.22.3 ~$ eog http://chart.finance.yahoo.com/c/1y/m/mvl displays the image (PNG file) as expected using eog v2.24.1 on ubuntu intrepid (8.10) ~$ eog --version GNOME eog 2.24.1 ~$ eog http://chart.finance.yahoo.com/c/1y/m/mvl this displays an error in the eog window: No images found in 'http://chart.finance.yahoo.com/c/1y/m/mvl'. however ~$ wget http://chart.finance.yahoo.com/c/1y/m/mvl -O mvl.png ~$ eog mvl.png works as expected I verified that URLs pointing to jpg or gif images also fail, so it appears to be a general problem with the URL scheme, and not an image format problem. Has URL support been removed or is it just broken? There's nothing in the release notes indicating removal (but maybe I missed it). ** Affects: eog (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- URL support broken or removed? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300802 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to eog in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
