Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: eog
Double click a jpeg in a directory with a percentage-sign in its name
ps -ef shows the command like 'eog file:///home/wim/jpeg_100%25/IMGP8120.jpg'
If one accesses the properties (file menu -> properties), the application
crashes.
Running from command line
w...@desktop1:~$ eog file:///home/wim/jpeg_100%25/IMGP8120.jpg
Segmentation fault
w...@desktop1:~$
The problem occurs when the path to the file contains a percentage sign
(in this case jpeg_100%); I assume that the additional 25 is now part of
%25 representing the percentage sign.
Further info:
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Workaround:
Don't use stupid percentage sign ;)
