No, it is the same changes, but made on a 9.10 system's files and
recreated as a patch. To build a version to test, you need to do
something like this (assuming you have not got this far already):

mkdir /tmp/f-spot
mkdir ~/f-spot-build
cd  ~/f-spot-build
sudo apt-get build-dep f-spot
apt-get source f-spot
cd f-spot-0.6.1.5
./configure --prefix=/tmp/f-spot --disable-scrollkeeper
make
make install

At this point you should have a working version of the unpatched F-spot
in the temporary installation directory, and you can test it with:

cd /tmp/f-spot/bin
./f-spot

Check it works, and has the usual problem. Then go back and fix it with:

cd  ~/f-spot-build/f-spot-0.6.1.5
patch -p1 < ../test.debdiff
make
make install

(assuming you saved my patch in ~/f-spot-build) Then test the patched
version again with this:

cd /tmp/f-spot/bin
./f-spot

If it is all happy and you like it, then re-name the
/usr/lib/f-spot/f-spot.exe file and copy your built version to that
directory, then change it to be root owned, something like:

cd  /usr/lib/f-spot
sudo mv f-spot.exe f-spot.exe.original
sudo cp /tmp/f-spot/bin/f-spot.exe .
sudo chown root:root f-spot.exe

Hopefully that will work (not tried last steps to install, on work PC
which is 10.04 just now) Note that the /tmp/f-spot test location I used
here will normally be deleted on reboot, so you might want to consider
putting it elsewhere if you are planning on a lot of testing, etc. You
can re-create the directory and re-populate it with 'make install' as
needed though.
