The reason why the Import from F-Spot menu option is there irrespective of whether you've ever had F-Spot installed or not is because it can load an F-Spot database from anywhere so you could for example plug in the HDD of an old computer that had F-Spot installed and import the photos that are present on there.
One thing I would like to do when time permits is to re-factor the F-Spot code to use the new SPIT (Shotwell Pluggable Interfaces Technology) architecture so that it becomes a plugin that you can enable or disable at will. That would also provide the infrastructure for others to write plugins to import from other photo libraries, as suggest by Lars above. I suspect that would be a good little project for GUADEC week :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779109 Title: F-Spot reference hard coded -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
