30196 - JPEGs are not displayed on non-RedHat Linux systems

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 31196

(Core :: Graphics: ImageLib, defect, P3)

Description

[Thomas Mueller]

On several sites jpg images weren't displayed. This includes for instance
www.excite.com (try to change your image in the upper right corner), and also on
www.amazon.com with some images.
There is only the 'alt' text shown, sometimes overlapping with other texts

Can you display any jpeg images?
Do you have libjpeg.so.62 installed?

There is a known problem that the tarball is
not including the jpeg library. If you have libjpeg.so.62
installed on your machine, you should be fine.
If your version is old, you may need to manually make the
symlink to it. Be aware image quality may suffer due to
api changes.

The jpeg library should have been in the tarball. A bug has
been filed on this.

Rubber-stamping as verified duplicate. [e-mail], please re-open if
you do in fact have libjpeg.so.62 installed.
