[Bug 1360522] Re: Post-upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS, GTK cannot open .png files

 

Re-installing shared-mime-info and running the update-mime-database
command fixed this.

Bug can be closed, I guess.

Note that the update also trashed pam (I had to reinstall that and run
the pam update script). Grub2 was borked and required a patch and a
workaround. Firefox is now randomly crashing, and Civ V now segfaults on
launch.

It has been a long couple of days and everything is still not fixed.

Title:
  Post-upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS, GTK cannot open .png files

Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have had multiple problems with an upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04
  LTS.

  This specific issue involves multiple errors from GTK and other glib
  applications not being able to process .png files.

  The crash files refer to

  GError: Unrecognized image file format. 
  GError: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file

  etc. All files referred to are .png

  Running gtk applications such as gimp produces a long list or warnings
  of the nature:

  Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'edit-cut' for stock:
  Unrecognized image file format

  The images load fine in gimp as images. As icons, nothing loads.

  I have reinstalled glib and libpng to no effect.
