Created attachment 648760 [details] Tux in PNG format Description of problem: The xloadimage does not load PNG images anymore. It produces an unsupported error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xloadimage-4.1-9.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Attempt to load a PNG image Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run xloadimage <image> 2. 3. Actual results: The following error occurs: "unknown or unsupported image type" Expected results: The image should have been loaded. Additional info: This is a blocking issue. The utility does not work at all. You cannot set background anymore in Fedora 17. It causes great inconvenience as all programs relied on xloadimage to set background do not work. It seems to affect Fedora 17, as in Fedora 16 it works fine: panos@hector:[103] ~/tmp > cat /etc/redhat-release Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) panos@hector:[104] ~/tmp > rpm -q xloadimage xloadimage-4.1-9.fc17.x86_64 panos@hector:[105] ~/tmp > xloadimage tux.png tux.png: unknown or unsupported image type panos@pharmacy:[216] ~/tmp > cat /etc/redhat-release Fedora release 16 (Verne) panos@pharmacy:[217] ~/tmp > rpm -q xloadimage xloadimage-4.1-6.fc16.x86_64 panos@pharmacy:[218] ~/tmp > xloadimage tux.png tux.png is 400x479 PNG image, color type RGB_ALPHA, 8 bit Building XImage...done Refusing to load Tux is a sacrilege against all Linux community in my opinion :)
