          Severity: normal

         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: david readingroom com

Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

GIMP files (.xcf) are quite big, but GIMP transparently handles compression if you use .gz or .bz2 compression.

showfoto, though, refuses to open .xcf.(gz|bz2) files, as it complains about having no handler - though it can open .xcf files.

Possibly this defect will exist in other parts of KDE too...?
