I see this problem too. It is a regression from Jaunty. I had 2 Jaunty and 1 Fedora (F9/10?) systems where gthumb import worked correctly. I upgraded the Jaunty systems and re-installed the Fedora system. All systems now have this issue.
In my case at least, I found this problem was caused by the presence of .MOV (movie) files on the SD card. I deleted them, and gthumb import worked. I'm not sure if this issue is triggered by a) any non-JPG file, b) MOVs specifically c) some facet/subset of unsupported image formats. Note that MOV files from the exact same camera/SD-card/card-reader worked OK in Jaunty. "strace -f" of "gthumb --import-photos" indicates that gthumb (or a library it uses) is performing some operation to search the Ubuntu installation for some kind of file (IIRC a language pack?) after stat()/open()ing the .MOV file. I'm not sure if this is a bug in gthumb (or some lib it uses) or perhaps some package it depends on simply isn't installed? -- gThumb doesn't import images https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
