[Bug 964046] [NEW] Blank, unselectable wallpaper listed in Desktop Settings

[Tim Pederick]

Public bug reported:

Release: Kubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin Beta 1

Observed: When going into the Desktop Settings of a brand-new
installation, I find the current wallpaper listed along with an odd
blank entry; no preview, just "1920x1200". A screenshot is attached.
Clicking on this mysterious entry makes it disappear, as does moving
focus to it by keyboard. The Apply button is enabled when this entry is
selected, but clicking it changes nothing (except by taking focus away
from the blank entry and so making it visible again!)

If I then install another wallpaper (from Get New Wallpapers..., other
methods haven't been tested), it too appears blank, with nothing but a
name, and vanishes if I select it. However, if I click Apply while it's
selected, it does become the new background. And if I close Desktop
Settings and return to it, the new wallpaper's preview and details are
now filled in. (The blank entry persists, however.)
