Public bug reported:

To reproduce the bug follow these steps

1. Start Gimp and open the example-before.tif with LZW compression attached below
2. Go to Image -> Mode -> Indexed, choose "Generate optimum palette -> Maximum number of colors", change the value from 256 to 16 and hit "Convert" button
3. Go to File -> Save, replace the file and change compression to jpeg
4. Now a message appears saying:
TIFF image Message
PhotometricInterpretation 3 not allowed for JPEG
TIFF image Message
Failed a scanline write on row 0
GIMP Message
Saving '/home/myname/example-after.tif' failed:
TIFF image plug-in could not save image
5. The file with the image on the disc now has a size of 8 bytes and cannot be opened or viewed anymore (see the example-after.tif attached)
