    1.58 -.B convert
    1.59 +.B mogrify
    1.60  fails the conversion of the XCF image format of GIMP, but it exits with 0 anyway. This looks like a bug in the
    1.61 -.B convert
    1.62 +.B mogrify
    1.63  program.
    1.64  As result the image is added to the gallery but it is not viewable.
    1.65  Other formats might be affected as well.
