Attempting to fix DateTime EXIF import issue...

[Christian Pearce <pearcec perfectorder com>]

I reported a bug about how some of my photos don't import the 
correct DateTime.  It just sets it to the current time.  Even 
though the DateTime in the EXIF is set correctly.  Or so I 
assume.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309436 <-- I have a 
screen shot that should expain it better.

I am able to compile the code I have a couple questions.

1. How do you use the compiled form without doing a "make 
install".  I noticed in the f-spot script it looks to see if you 
are running the uninstalled version but it doesn't work.  I have 
to install it into local to do testing.  Which I would rather not 
do.  I suppose I have to set the LD_LIBRARTY_PATH to 
libfspot/.libs or something.

2. Where in the code does the Exif data get scanned for the 
import?  I am new to C# and I don't really know how to code it.  
But I am sure if I am in the right place I can sniff out the 
problem.

I found this in Exif.cs Reset():

                       //FIXME the month string in time fields in 
libexif ix currently broken so we do our own.

                       System.Console.WriteLine ("Inside reset 
{1}",tag);
                       if (tag == Tag.DateTime
                           || tag == Tag.DateTimeOriginal
                           || tag == Tag.DateTimeDigitized)
                               this.SetData 
(System.DateTime.Now);

But you will notice i added the WriteLine.  And it doesn't get 
called.  Any pointers?

Oh an bravo to the person who decided to use sqlite.  I am very 
pleased.
