Description Bartosz Brachaczek 2011-07-27 13:11:24 UTC 
Description of problem:
When I double-clik on an SVGZ file in Nautilus, it opens Eye of GNOME to display it. Though, Eye of GNOME fails and tells me it does not recognize the image format. Uncompressed SVG works just good. Firstly I reported it to GNOME (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655377). It turned out that native support for SVGZ was indeed missing but a developer told me it should still displayer using GdkPixbuf. And indeed when I tried Eye of GNOME 2.32.1 on my Gentoo installation, it was able to show SVGZ files.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.0.1

Expected results:
SVGZ files are recognized correctly. If it was anything to do with upstream, the bug is also fixed or at least reported upstream.

To me it looks like F15's librsvg2 build is missing an upstream fix[1] to get the SVGZ support in the pixbuf loader working again. The output of gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders shows that the SVG loader doesn't report the SVGZ mimetype.

Yes, it is very likely.
Comment 3 Kalev Lember 2012-04-27 07:14:19 UTC 
Hi,

Thanks for reporting this. Confirmed fixed as of Fedora 17, at least.

This is still a problem in FC26.
