Allright, I built F-spot with the latest patch, and it does work! All the photos have tags. It was obvious to me from the beginning that there would be no icon for the tags, as I assume that F-spot creates them when the tag is created, not when it is displayed. Minor issue that is, being how F-spot is still beta. But yes, when F-spot is released (and hopefully with this patch) it should most definatly create icons. My last issue is work out on my way to happily presenting the wife with a working photo manager is converting the tags from their unusual encoding to Hebrew. I installed sqlite, sqlite3 and sqlitebrowser with the intention of working directly on the tags in photos.db but I've no luck. I'm not sure if this list is the right place to ask about SQL queries, so I'll subscribe to the sqlite list (assuming there is one) if I can't ask here. What is the SQL command for converting all instances of "needle" to "new_needle"? I specifically need to work on a letter-to-letter basis, changing for instance the character string "\u05D0\u05D1\u05D2\u05D3\u05D4" to "abcde" (well, the Hebrew equivelent of abcde). I know that I'll need to run 27 queries (one for each letter), but that is fine. Thank you guys so much. We very much appreciate all the hard work. We really do. Lots of our friends are going to be hearing about F-spot, that's for sure. I think I've even got two MS-converts ready...
