Recently upgraded 16.04 to 18.04.
In the Settings app, I navigate to Details, Users. I click the thumbnail for my user account's image.
I am able to select one of the predetermined images that appears, but if instead I click "Select a file", then in the ensuing dialog ("Browse for more pictures"), I can highlight a local image file, but the "Open" button in the header bar remains greyed out, so I cannot actually select an image.
Has anyone seen this behavior? Know how to fix it?

What picture format do you select, jpg, pgn, ...?

Format doesn't seem to matter; jpg, png, gif all fail.

And you can open the selected picture otherwise?

Yes, no problem opening any of these image files in any other context.

Strange. Do you see the preview picture when you select your picture?
