Description
While trying to reproduce bug #689207 on Mac OS X I found out that this build can't open EPS and PS files at all.
How to reproduce:
- Put a PS or EPS file on your disk.
- In GIMP call File/Open... and go to the folder where you placed your PS or EPS file.
- Select the file, optionally wait to see the file preview, confirm.
Expected results:
- The File-Open dialog shows a preview of the file.
- After confirming GIMP opens the file.
Actual results:
- The File-Open dialog doesn't show a preview of the file.
- After confirming GIMP refuses opening the file with the error message 'Unknown file type.'
This is always reproducible on Mac OS X, but not on Windows. I haven't tried Linux.
Version: 2.8.2
