Thumbnails appear normally, images open without any problem in external viewers. However, when a JPEG image is selected, the preview will not appear --- just the error "Failed to load image". Same thing happens when trying to open the editor or the slideshow. Only affects JPEG images; GIF, PNG, TIFF, BMP all open normally. Affects JPEG files both locally and on network shares. 3.4 repo install on new installation of PCLinuxOS. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select thumbnail in the album viewer Actual Results: "Failed to load image" Expected Results: Preview image is displayed.
Started it from the command line and got: digikam(15195)/digikam (core) Digikam::PreviewLoadingTask::execute: Cannot extract preview for "/home/xxx/xxxx/people.jpg" digikam(15195)/digikam (core) Digikam::EditorCore::getImg: d->image is NULL
Of course this is not reproducible here... JPEG is a very used file format... 2 possibilities : - file rights are wrong. Try to use another JPEG viewer program. - JPEG lib is broken on your system. Please share a test image through shared web service, to be able to test here... Gilles Caulier

> - JPEG lib is broken on your system. Please share a test image through I took a look at the JPEG related packages installed, but there are a lot of them... Any guidance as to which is most relevant? I'll try reinstalling.
