If the manual clearly states your original is never altered, then there
must never be a situation where it needs write access to the file.



If you are able, could you upgrade to 0.8.2-1 in experimental and see
if this fixes your issue?



The problem is still there, but in disguise:

0.8.2-1 does not pop-up an error message. Instead, after I pressed
[, it became unresponsive, spinning somewhere and consuming cpu
until I terminated it after a few minutes (77% f-spot, 22% kcryptd
on my SSD, but disk access led unlit. So perhaps reading from cache
whatever it was looking for).


Thanks for your prompt reply, and please accept my apologies for
forgetting to warn you about the schema incompatibility. I recommend
0.8.2 for daily use though. ;-)

Anyway, if you don't mind, could you report this bug upstream[0]? Be
sure to include the f-spot --debug log. They're best placed to help
you debug this issue and, as never modifying original files was an
important goal for the 0.8 series, should be interested in your
issue.

Cheers,
Iain

WARNING: 0.8.2-1 changed the sqlite schema (this may have been due
to the changes I made to plugin settings), and I had to restore
~/.config/f-spot/ from backup before 0.6.2-2 would start up again.
However, I'm using ZFS and had a recent snapshot, so that was okay.
I'm not upset, but you might want to note the compatibility issue if
you suggest upgrading to someone who may be less technically minded.
They might become annoyed if they think they'll have to recreate
the tag database for their collection of 10,000 photos...

tags 608323 + confirmed upstream
thanks

Hiya,

Package: f-spot
Version: 0.6.2-2
Severity: normal

The online manual clearly states:

| 1.2.1. Versions
| When you edit your photos, a new copy (called a version) is created,
| so your original is never altered. After your first edit to a photo,
| subsequent edits will modify the same version. [...]

However, the rotate operation does not work if the original file
is not writable because it attempts to modify the original instead of
either a) creating a new version (as the manual states it will do),
or b) storing the new display setting in the database (as it does for
tags/ratings/etc).

It is important to me that my original files are never modified in any way.

I think this bug should be fixed by f-spot 0.8 which you can find in
experimental. Unfortunately it can't be fixed in Squeeze because it is
frozen for all but release critical fixes for some time now.

If you are able, could you upgrade to 0.8.2-1 in experimental and see
if this fixes your issue?

Cheers,
Iain
