[Pedro Villavicencio <pedro@xxxxxxxxxx>]

the problem is that .ico can only be up to 256x256 pixels. GDKPixbuf
returns an GError for that but eog is not catching the error nor telling
the user that the image should be resized, there's an upstream bug for
that here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=615376 ;
readjusting the bug title and linking to that report, thanks in advance.
