I was running F-Spot while this happened. The DBus name in the other
F-Spot provider should probably be named something else. A regular
user shouldn't know about DBus.

I tried the DBus provider for F-Spot, but when running it I got the
following error-message:

dbus.exceptions.DBusException:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "GetTagNames" with
signature "" on interface "org.gnome.FSpot.TagRemoteControl" doesn't
exist

The user interface to configure the dataprovider didn't manage to show
any tags. The F-Spot version is 0.40 and Conduit is 0.3.6 built on
Ubuntu 7.10.

Would you like a Bug report?
