Bug#232323: "broken" images below http://murphy.debian.org/lists/



Subject: www.debian.org: "broken" images below http://murphy.debian.org/lists/
Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor

A follow-up to a mail from Francis Daly who gave the following good
description
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2003/debian-www-200310/msg00133.html)
so that this problem is not forgotten:

  Many images below http://murphy.debian.org/lists/ -- for example,

  http://murphy.debian.org/lists/debian-user-french/debian-user-french-distabs-months.png

  -- are sent out with a Content-type: header of image/png, but the
     content
  is actually of type image/gif.

  Given the end of the url, the Content-type: header is a reasonable
  guess by the server; I presume the problem is that whatever creates
  the images does the equivalent of "mv image.gif image.png" instead of
  "convert image.gif image.png".

  The fix is presumably either to change the names of the created images
  to .gif, or to create them in (or convert them to) png format.

  The browser "dillo" does not display the images as they currently are,
  presumably because it decides that they are malformed pngs, since it
  believes the HTTP header.
