Cannot open PNG files with imageviewer

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 16994 / 2 Years ago, fri, august 12, 2022, 7:07:16

When I try to open PNG files, I double click them, then nothing happens. I have to go to "Open with" and select F-spot photoviewer to view PNG files.

This is eog, eye of gnome, correct? How can I troubleshoot the default image viewer?

Following up on the Glib-GIO-CRITICAL issue, I googled around a little and found it actually was a known issue with libglib. I had another outstanding problem with that, and question on askubuntu. I went ahead with rolling back a version, and the problem was corrected. Details for what was rolled back are here:

How do I downgrade libglib2? (from glib 2.31 to 2.30?)
