Bug Description

When I try to import photos from my camera and the folder where I store all my photos using F-Spot, i.e. when my external hard drive is not powered on while I try to import my photos, it is not possible to accomplish that task.

First, F-Spot notifies me that that folder is unavailable. After that it continues to download image previews etc. Once that is done, and I click on import, an error message is displayed and F-Spot closes when I click on cancel. This even happens when I choose to import the photos to another folder.
