Title:
  Lyx crashes with SIGSEGV when trying to show image

Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lyx

  Lyx 1.6.2 crashes on showing image when "Scale on Screen (%)" option
  is set to 50 and image size is 1266x421. Some other sizes cause chash
  too (for example, 856x331), but setting scale to 51% solves the
  problem. In 9.10 this problem seems to be fixed, but 8.04 can also be
  affected.

  It is quite simple to reproduce the bug: open gimp and create new
  empty image with size 1266x421. Then start lyx and create new file.
  Choose Insert->Graphics... and select your file. Go to "LaTeX and LyX
  options" tab and set "Scale on Screen (%)" option to 50. Then push
  "Apply" button. Lyx crashes with SIGSEGV signal.

  I have several files with such "bad" image. LyX crashes always, when
  it should show and image. Using vi to change lyxscale option in .lyx
  file from 50 to 51 helps to workaround this problem. Image format
  seems to be unrelevant, I had such bug with jpeg and png images.
