Absolutely. Although I thought that was done. But in any case, while duplicate checking worked for a while, this was broken again by some patch quite a while back. http://www.svenutcke.de/sw/f-spot/cleanup/ gives a short account of what happened. A solution is available as part of my face detection suite at http://www.svenutcke.de/sw/Face/ (which can be made to calculate a hash on the image content alone), but unless you really are interested in face detection, this is rather overkill for your problem, I would think...
