After reading all the (excelent) discussion here, my 2 cents are:

- I agree this is not actually a bug... but it is *extremely*
embarassing for Ubuntu/Cannonical to have something as "iconical" as its
default wallpaper done in 1 - Another OS, 2 - Using proprietary
software, specially since Ubuntu has appropriate tools for that job.

- Its even more embarassing that the suggested "fix" was to actually
remove the header from the image! This is literally swapping the dirt
under the carpet. From all possible fixes imaginable, this "lets hide
the evidence that we used PS on Mac" approach is truly shameful. If its
OK to use other OSses and non-free sw to build Ubuntu, why hide this
fact?

- If this is an invalid bug, *do not apply the patch*. Leave the header
there, and maybe this will motivate the Desing Team @ Cannonical to re-
create the wallpaper using GIMP in Ubuntu

Finally, a side-comment: not sure if this is related to the missing
header or to the fact that this "png" image is actually a JPEG, but when
i open it using F-Spot and try to see the metadata, i get this error:
