Bug ID: 452502
Summary: Krita refuses to open valid files based on extension
Product: krita
Version: 5.0.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: File formats
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: storm.ant...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have tried to open one of the save backup files created by Krita, with the
".kra.1~" extension, only to be told Krita can't open it because it's not the
right file type. After being renamed to ".kra" it opened without a problem.
Krita, especially on Linux, should use file headers instead of extensions to
determine if something is of a supported file type. This used to work
previously.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change a valid .kra file's extension to something invalid.
2. Try to open it.
OBSERVED RESULT
Krita will claim it's the wrong file type.
EXPECTED RESULT
Krita should open the file like it used to.
