Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: f-spot
I'm using f-spot with Hardy Heron 8.04. I came across a rather
concerning bug. If I rotate an image (either left or right) and do some
other action before the rotation has finished, it results in a corrupted
file. After the attempted rotate If I try to open the image in GIMP it
says that the file ends prematurely. The image will load, but only the
pixels through where the rotation had completed now exist.
This is not a constant phenomenon, however. Usually the rotate feature
happens very quickly. But in some circumstances (i.e with a very large
photo and/or heavy system load) the rotation takes longer than expected
and if you try to do something else (namely rotate another image) it
ends the first rotation prematurely, effectively rotating only half of
the image and corrupting the rest. As long as you let the second
rotation finish, the second image is fine.
F-spot should either not allow another action until the rotation is
completed, or should triage the commands it receives more effectively.
Finishing a current process before starting another.
