Hi

Any suggestions for how to ensure this update is only run once?
1) Add a keypair to the Key/Value database, and only do this if this
keypair is not there?
2) Check the version of F-Spot earlier than 0.1.8 (Is it in the KeyPair
database, or somewhere else?

Something else?

Also, to ensure the moving of files is done securely, I would do Copy
and then delete. Could also do a checksum of the new file, and compare
with the old one to really ensure it is ok...
