Title:
  eog should auto-refresh when file changes

Status in Eye of GNOME:
  Fix Released
Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: eog

  For example:

  cp red.jpg image.jpg
  eog image.jpg &
  cp blue.jpg image.jpg

  eog will keep showing the red image, even if I re-select image.jpg
  from the recent files list.

  The use case is when I'm working on a program that outputs an image,
  and I keep rerunning my program on each iteration. As it is, I have to
  use something like kview or gwenview to avoid constantly restarting my
  viewer just to see the latest iteration. Even pressing alt-f,1 in eog
  would probably make me switch back.

  Ubuntu 8.04.1, eog 2.22.3-0ubuntu2
