Import saves images in home root

Hi Pedro,

I noticed the bug you linked this bug to. But unlike in Bug #300761 , there was no warning that the Folder "Photos" doesn't exist, nor it has been created.

Additionally, I didn't have the problem until march 30th 2009 (At least that's the date of the first image stored in my home root).
So I don't think it's a duplicate of Bug #300761 . I will remove the tag, but please correct if I'm wrong :-)

it seems to be the same cause but if you're unsure you're free to submit it directly upstream at bugzilla.gnome.org where the software authors can read about it, for instructions on how to do it please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME ; thanks.

This seems to be a duplicate of bug 354264:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/f-spot/+bug/354264

Actually that bug is a duplicate of this bug here, isn't it?
This bug was filed before the other one, and I already reported it upstream...

It may very well be so, I just marked them both to make some with the permissions to merge bugs to take note of this and combine them.

If "upstream" means the f-spot team, they seem to be convinced that this is a bug in the ubuntu patches, not in the original source code. Therefore, the maintainer of the ubuntu patches need to look into them.

I recall that, up until 8.10, images copied during import were placed in YYYY/MM/DD directories automatically. Now they are copied into the Import folder without the date subdirectories.

I broke my Camera, so I can't check if this bug is present any longer :-(

I'd not consider this bug as low priority, upstream is receiving a lot of reports about this!

There's a comment in bug 354264 that explains the cause of this problem and provides a patch to fix it. The bug is in the ubuntu patchset and the maintainer of those should consider the supplied patch and releasing a bugfix via the ubuntu repos.
