Bug Description

[Impact]

It is impossible to rotate images using 'nautilus-image-converter' even though it presents a context menu entry advertising this feature.

[Test Case]

Install 'nautilus-image-converter' and restart nautilus via `nautilus -q`
in a terminal. Open a new Nautilus instance, right click an image, left click "Rotate images..." in the context menu. Nothing happens.

After installing the patched 'nautilus-image-converter' package and restarting Nautilus, right click and image, left click "Rotate images..." in the context menu and the image rotation dialogue is presented.

[Regression Potential]

None. The fix is UI only.

[Other Info]

Simple fix in git, ie. remove 1 line from the .ui -
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus-image-converter/commit/?id=23441ed6d74b4eba68333c802890cb396721a6d6

It's probable that few users actually use this app considering no reports in the 2+ years it's been broken.
On the other hand if a package is available to install it should work.

Affects me, too.

I'm trying to understand what the status is behind the Bugzilla link you mentioned in #2. As far as I understand it means a fix has been proposed already back in 2014 but it never went into the package upstream?

So there were other lp reports, don't know how missed...
The issue was fixed upstream but neither Debian or Ubuntu have bothered
to update their source..

Users can fix themselves by simply editing the .ui file as root in a
text editor but this really should be taken care of
