[Bug 1077186] Re: ignores EXIF rotation data from Nikon cameras

[Sebastien Bacher]

Thanks Tormod, the patch got approved upstream so I uploaded to raring,
is there any chance you could update the bug to be SRU compliant
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates ... basically it needs
those info: Impact, Test Case, Regression Potential), then we can update
to quantal (if we think it's worth backporting there)

Title:
  ignores EXIF rotation data from Nikon cameras

Status in pixbuf library for gtk+:
  New
Status in “gdk-pixbuf” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, I find that glslideshow is ignoring
  rotation data in pictures taken by my Nikon D7000 camera, and so
  portrait pictures are shown rotated by 90 degrees. An example of such
  an image is:

  http://acunningham.org/photos/2012/06/10/dsc_8639.jpg

  Portrait pictures taken by an older camera are displayed correctly. An
  example if such an image is:

  http://acunningham.org/photos/2003/07/02/France/dsc00112.jpg

  This is a regression; it used to work correctly on Ubuntu 11.10.

  EDIT: It also works in Ubuntu 12.04. In Quantal it worked with gdk-
  pixbuf 2.26.3-0ubuntu1 and broke with 2.26.4-0ubuntu1.
