Bengt, I finally compiled and ran this patch- it works great. All our data was imported. However, the tags are not converted to XMP even though I have the appropriate option checked in the Preferences. So I figured that if I drag and drop the tags to new top-level tags, the information would be re-written as XMP data, but not so. What can I do to have F-Spot convert the data to XMP? Because I'm not certain that this patch will continue working on future versions of F-Spot, and I'd like to have all my data in one format (ie, XMP). Thanks.
