Public bug reported: I've transferred the info for this from here because, apparently, the original bug report was encountering two separate problems:https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system- image/+bug/1512257
I can reproduce this with rc-proposed build 278 on Mako. The gallery app shows nothing (just white background) where a thumbnail should be. Pawel saw the same thing and posted a screenshot here: http://imgur.com/a/j2yoW To reproduce, start out with a clean cache (thumbnailer-admin clear) and an empty photo roll, and with neither gallery nor camera running. Take twenty pictures with the camera. Start the gallery app from the launcher. For me everything works fine at this point, thumbnails show up as expected. Go back to the camera app (via launcher). Take ten more shots. Go back to the gallery (via launcher). At this point, the gallery app showed the problem briefly and then crashed, so I re-started the app. After doing that, it showed the thumbnails correctly. Go back to the camera app, take ten more pictures, back to gallery-app, etc. Eventually, the problem will show up (if the gallery app doesn't crash). I have verified from the thumbnailer trace that, each time I return to the gallery app, the app asks for thumbnails for the newly-added images (plus a bunch of others), and the thumbnailer correctly returns those, so this is not a thumbnailer problem. ** Affects: gallery-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: thumbnailer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Triaged ** Also affects: thumbnailer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: thumbnailer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1521365 Title: Crashes and missing thumbnails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gallery-app/+bug/1521365/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
