The problem was caused by ubuntu_importer-targetdir-selector.dpatch:

+                        if (File.Exists(FSpot.Global.PhotoDirectory))

According to Microsoft's C# documentation, File.Exists will always
return false when passed a directory path. It should be calling
Directory.Exists. Having made this change locally, the bug is fixed for
me (by default it chooses the directory set in my config and uses
YYYY/MM/DD subdirectories).

So really, I'm not sure how this could ever have worked, or why it
couldn't be reproduced. Pedro, are you sure:

- that you are actually using f-spot from ubuntu
- that you are not taking any action to select an import directory
- that the image files are being placed in YYYY/MM/DD subfolders

I have attached a patch for karmic. I am more than happy to do so for
jaunty if it has any chance of getting uploaded and if someone explains
what the new version number should be.
