Title:
  [MIR] gnome-exe-thumbnailer, imagemagick, icoutils

Status in “gnome-exe-thumbnailer” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “icoutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “imagemagick” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-exe-thumbnailer

  gnome-exe-thumbnailer is a UI-less script for showing the icons
  embedded in executable files.  Without gnome-exe-thumbnailer, all
  Windows .exes show up as mysterious blue question mark diamonds
  without any clue as to their purpose or function.

  Integration of gnome-exe-thumbnailer into main (and part of the
  default install) is the first step of the karmic wine integration
  blueprint: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/karmic-wine-integration - while the
  first step of the blueprint, it functions as a nice usability
  enhancement of its own

  gnome-exe-thumbnailer depends on imagemagick and icoutils, two console
  programs with no translation or interface requirements

  
  In terms of file size, gnome-exe-thumbnailer is about 150k, imagemagick is 100k, and icoutils is 200k, for a combined CD impact of just under half a megabyte.

  In terms of upstreams, I am the personal upstream of gnome-exe-
  thumbnailer (I'll be adding it to winezeug soon:
  http://code.google.com/p/winezeug).  imagemagick is an active project:
  http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php as is icoutils:
  http://www.nongnu.org/icoutils/  -- both have made releases this year.
