Description:
When GQView instance is open, and you run gqview -r <file> it segfaults.
When there is no open instance, and you run with -r option, program starts and immediately is closed.

In /usr/share/applications/gqview.desktop there is defined Exec with -r option.
I suggest to remove it, because more intuitive behavior is when i double click some image, to run another instance, than opening in existing(for example to compare 2 images).

Additional info:
Arch 64, all packages up to date(today)
gqview 2.0.4-2
gqview[6610]: segfault at 2c ip 00007f2821229f02 sp 00007fffa9c07dd0 error 6 in libglib-2.0.so.0.2000.4[7f28211f0000+c2000]


Steps to reproduce:
open gqview
run once again with -r option

gqview is no longer maintained upstream. You might want to switch to geeqie, an active fork of gqview.

Hm... Thanks... i didn't know about this fork. But maybe this little change in .desktop file can be applied? I see that the same option (-r) is specified in geeqie. I know that this is more ideological aspect... maybe vote somewhere :)

I have the same issue with gqview. I installed geeqie but it seems an alfa app and I cannot get it to work with the preferences set to "fit to window". It can't guess that I have a wide screen monitor.

The libjpeg7 patch to gtk2 did not resolve this issue. Libjpeg7 makes many apps malfunction.
