It has lots of bugs in Debian, which I'm trying to catch/solve/triage, and it would be a problem having a buggier bleeding edge version :(. I wish gthumb had fewer bugs filed :'(. Julien: I believe we all want to wait for 2.11.0 to implement this, no? :) If you really need it, I might package a trunk version of gthumb and put it on a personal repository. Kindly, David -- .
