Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   
   I have installed cinnamon in a virtual machine.
   
   I have started cinnamon in virtual machine and when I have want 
   to change background it won't work because of not loading images.
  
   I have find that applet that change background image is
   /usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/cinnamon-settings.py backgrounds.
   Launching it from terminal I have discovered that images are not loaded 
   because the conversion failed.
   Searching the internet I have discovered in arch forums the same problem.
   They fixed that.
   
   Fix:
   in /usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/imtools.py at line 
   862 ( if source == mask: ) they have ( if mask and source == mask: )
   
   The arch forum is at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=183840
   Thank you.
