Description of problem: EOG will create thumbnails regardless of the fact that they have been disabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eog-2.28.2-4.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Disable all external thumbnailers + nautilus thumbnails. Execute as root: gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type bool --set /desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/disable_all True gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_directory_item_counts never gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/preview_sound never gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_image_thumbnails never gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_icon_text never gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type int --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/thumbnail_limit 0 2. Create new user account and login into GNOME. 3. Open a directory containing pictures in Nautilus. Files are not displayed as thumbs because this has been disabled. 4. Verify ~/.thumbnails doesn't yet exist or is empty. 5. Open a picture with EOG 6. ~/.thumbnails/normal is created and one thumbnail picture is present 7. In EOG proceed to the next picture 8. In ~/.thumbnails/normal there are already 2 image files. 9. and so on ... Actual results: EOG doesn't respect GNOME preferences. Expected results: EOG respects GNOME preferences and doesn't create thumbnails. Additional info: If you open gconf-editor and navigate to /desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/disable_all you will confirm that it is turned on (i.e. disable thumbnails) and that the user can't change the setting.
