Re: Failed attempt to upgrade in Ubuntu Edgy

[Bengt Thuree <bengt thuree com>]

Hi

Perhaps your database is still in Sqlite2 version, while F-Spot demands
Sqlite3?

Try with 
	file ~/.gnome2/f-spot/photos.db
If this is Sqlite2 (not 3) then try to convert the database.

Gabriel (and a number of others) have sent the following instruction to
the list before.

/Bengt

cd ~/.gnome2/f-spot/
mv photos.db photos_sqlite2.db
sqlite photos_sqlite2.db .dump | sqlite3 photos.db

Note the first sqlite call in the last instruction is sqlite (which is
sqlite2 implicitly, so you must have it installed).
