I had problems working with the UI at first too.  Stephane sent out an
email on the mailinglist in February about this.  Basically, before
you do anything, you need to follow a few hackish steps to get Glade
to only update the .glade file where you changed things, instead of
the whole file (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/f-spot-list/2007-February/msg00092.html).
Also, you are using the right version of Glade (at least, it's the
same version as what I have, and I've had no problems lately).

If you've done those steps, then there might be other things to
consider.  If you've added a file, you probably need to put it into
the make file.  If so, I think you need to run autogen again as well.
