** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: eog
  
  On Ubuntu 10.10 beta including last updates.
  
  How to reproduce :
  - open a picture with EOG
  - click on "Edit picture" button
  - in the new window (Shotwell viewer), rotate the picture, then save, then close Shotwell
  - EOG proposes to reload the picture, click on "Reload"
  
  Result : EOG displays the picture without rotation.
  
  Expected result : EOG should display the picture rotated the same way as
  in Shotwell.
  
- Remarks : 
- 1) if EOG is closed when you rotate a picture with Shotwell viewer, then EOG will open the picture with the same rotation as in Shotwell. So it looks like the bug is linked to the fact that EOG is opened when we save the rotation in Shotwell.
- 2) may be linked , but NOT duplicate with bug #644168
- 3) I remember a discussion saying that there were several kinds of picture attributes for rotation (EXIF, ...), so I suppose this bug comes from the fact that EOG and Shotwell don't use the same way of rotating pictures. There should be a standard way of rotating pictures to avoid such problems....
