Comment 32 for bug 354264

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.
