A simple workaround is to manually select the folder (pick "Other" from the menu, and browse to your "Photos" folder. After doing this, f-spot will put things correctly in the hierarchy.

[Bug 354264] Re: Imports all photos to the root of the home directory
Mary, thanks for your hint. Unfortunately for me the problem occured about a month ago and I was removing the files off the camera in preparation for an overseas trip (hence my highly unfortunate haste) from which I've just returned, having now re-filled the memory card with new photos. It was in using f-spot to download the new photos that I noticed they went into the home directory and I started investigating, and hence how I ended up here! I've now installed the Michael's fixed PPA version of f-spot so I'm ok myself, but I'd hope the Ubuntu crew reconsider the 'low' classification in light of this data loss to help avoid having someone else losing irreplaceable photos. -- Imports all photos to the root of the home directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to f-spot in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Chris Dunlop: you don't say if this was a recent problem, but if it was some or all photos may be recoverable from your memory card. photorec (/usr/sbin/photorec, once you install the testdisk package) is a good tool for this.

Unfortunately, for me, this *was* a data loss bug.

Re: [Bug 354264] Re: Imports all photos to the root of the home directory
Can we have an explanation for what the triaging as "Low" for Jaunty means in practical terms? The effect of the bug is that people who use f-spot and Jaunty throughout the Jaunty lifetime will have every single one of their imported photos dumped into their home directory. Not into subdirectories of their home directory, an entire six months (at least) worth of photos all directly under ~/ This will, unless they run my script, never be repaired (unless the karmic fixed package actually moves existing photos, I don't see any hint that it does), meaning that, if they, for example, back up ~/Photos believing it contains their imported photos as the program informed them it would they will miss all photos imported during the Jaunty lifecycle. It's not a data loss bug in and of itself, but it's something of a serious data integrity bug. So does "Low" mean, practically: (a) the effects of the bug appear minor to Ubuntu developers? (b) the Ubuntu developers have no opinion about the effects of the bug, but do not intend to fix it in Jaunty? (c) the Ubuntu developers have no opinion about the effects of the bug and will not prioritise a fix but would accept one if the community organises the SRU as far as possible? -- Imports all photos to the root of the home directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to f-spot in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 354264] Re: Imports all photos to the root of the home directory
I have a Python script that fixes up the mess. It shouldn't have any dependencies other than Python itself. I've only tested with Python 2.6, but I don't know of any reason 2.5 wouldn't work (before 2.5 the sqlite3 module won't be available). Features: 1. Moves files to [target-dir]//MM/DD for the date of the photograph itself, as is f-spot's current correct behaviour, creating these directories where necessary 2. Target dir need not be ~/Photos but can be arbitrary 3. Updates the photos and photo_versions tables in the f-spot database correctly (as far as I can tell anyway) both for original versions and modified versions. Usage: fix-fspot.py [correct target directory] [files...] Example usage: python fix-fspot.py ~/Photos ~/img_0001.jpg ~/img_0002.jpg Move ~/img_0001.jpg and ~/img_0002.jpg to the correct location under ~/Photos and updates the f-spot database appropriately. In case of corruption, your original database will be copied to ~/.gnome2/f-spot/photos.db-[TIMESTAMP] each time this runs My run of this was: python fix-fspot.py ~/Photos ~/*.{cr2,jpg} but of course you will want to construct your own command line. ** Attachment added: "fix-fspot.py" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27885633/fix-fspot.py -- Imports all photos to the root of the home directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to f-spot in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 354264] Re: Imports all photos to the root of the home directory
Here's an attempt at a clean up strategy. Note that I don't have any incorrectly placed photos on this computer, so the following is all untested. You should only proceed if you understand what the commands are doing. Move the relevant photos (probably in ~/2009) to the ~/Photos directory. Make sure you don't accidentally overwrite any existing photos or directories (go back and forth between the two directories, copying photos, in Nautilus for example). There's probably an easy automated command line solution for this, but I leave that to someone else (fiddle with 'find ~/2009', 'mkdir -p', and 'cp'). Now update the F-Spot database: mart...@michelle:~$ sqlite3 .gnome2/f-spot/photos.db SQLite version 3.6.10 Enter ".help" for instructions Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";" sqlite> update photos set uri = replace(uri,'file:///home/martijn/2009/','file:///home/martijn/Photos/2009/'); sqlite> update photo_versions set uri = replace(uri,'file:///home/martijn/2009/','file:///home/martijn/Photos/2009/'); sqlite> .exit mart...@michelle:~$ Of course, if you have a localized or customized location for ~/Photos, use that in the above instructions. And use your own home directory.

I ran f-spot using the command ``f-spot --debug &> f-spot.txt'' and attempted to import manualy by selecting import from the menu then the camera. I got an error saying: >Error connecting to camera >Received error "Could not lock the device" >while connecting to camera I then opened the camera from nautilus under computer and was invited to open camera using f-spot this time the import did proceed, but as the bug states, imported all my photos into the root of the home directory and not the Photos folder like in previous releases. I have attached the f-spot log, if any other information is required, I would be happy to help Alistair ** Attachment added: "f-spot log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24805119/f-spot.txt ** Changed in: f-spot (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- Imports all photos to the root of the home directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 354264] Re: Imports all photos to the root of the home directory
thanks for the report, i cannot reproduce this with jaunty as well, in the presence of the Photos folder f-spot imports the photos to that one, if there's no such directory it fallbacks to the home directory (and there's already a bug about that) could you please try to get a f-spot log with : f-spot --debug &> f-spot.txt reproduce the issue and attach the resulting file to the report? thanks in advance Jean. ** Changed in: f-spot (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: f-spot (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: f-spot (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) -- Imports all photos to the root of the home directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
