Bug Description

That would be nice if by default in Dapper, Nautilus could thumbnail camera RAW files. For that purpose there is gnome-raw-thumbnailer in Universe that could be brought to main to do that by default.

basically moving the package mentionned above to main

but there is an issue I have to investigate where the TIFF thumbnailer seems to take over on .cr2 files. That is a completely different problem I need to invistigate more.

Just to make things clear. There is in universe gnome-raw-thumbnailer that do the job. Having it installed by default would help. BUT there is also a bug in the thumbnailing code in gnome that make this fail with some files like Canon CR2. That needs to be addressed upstream.

I'm not especially working on it.

Well, this bug was opened in 2005 and now is 2012! And fun fact: this bug is still valid! Additionally there are bugs that needs to be fixed first. Like bug #852923 - it doesn't work out of the box on Oneiric, Precise and Quantal. Fix should be easy (adding a file to /usr/share/thumbnailers during install), but nobody cares.

Gnome-raw-thumbnailer now works properly, so I'm marking as fix released to clean up a bit.

If you want gnome-raw-thumbnailer to be included in default install, you have to report this against some other package. Or perhaps bring it to attention on nearest UDS.

If there are some filetypes not working with gnome-raw-thumbnailer, file separate bugs.
