Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: f-spot

Hi,

when I use F-Spot to copy files (Nikon D300s RAW files) from memory
cards to my computers (problems seen on two different machines, desktop
and netbook), three different problems occur not always, but quite
often:

* picture file copied incompletely (loss of data)
* picture file copied again every time the card is inserted (does not recognize 
that the file already exists)
* F-Spot reports that it can't access the file


I guess that - like Network Manager and other broken-by-design tools - make too 
much use of the desktop mechanisms, and that they are not stable. 

I do not think that it is a good idea to have such a buggy and
unreliable tool as the default picture processor under ubuntu.

Especially the loss of data is severe.

regards
