Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: f-spot
Running: ubuntu 8.10, kernel linux 2.5.27-7 generic, GNOME 2.24.1
f-spot:
Installed: 0.5.0.3-0ubuntu4
Candidate: 0.5.0.3-0ubuntu4
Version table:
*** 0.5.0.3-0ubuntu4 0

I have JPG image files with names like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The # and @ characters in the file names cause problems for f-spot, regardless
of whether or not I choose to copy the files to the Photos folder on import.
Immediately after import, the images display correctly. After restarting
f-spot, the images no longer display correctly.
1. Import files that contain # and @ characters in their filenames.
2. f-spot displays the images no problem.
3. Quit f-spot.
4. Start f-spot.
5. f-spot no longer displays the images: it shows empty boxes in their place.
Looking at the photos table in photos.db I see that the example image name
given above shows in the uri column as:
file:///home/paul/Pix/2007.03.15%23022%40italy.rome.yummy.pasta.jpg
I guess the %23 and %40 stored by f-spot's import feature prevent f-spot
from loading the images correctly after a restart.
