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.

After this http://mail.gnome.org/archives/f-spot-list/2007-March/msg00049.html

I replied (accidentally, it seems, without reply-to-all) that my version of glade2
was creating a file that was missing everything important to me.  I
offered to create a transcript, but we just let it drop.  I'm now
adding this transcript.  I think something abnormal is happening here. 
Is this the same result you get?  Are you using the glade2 package as
provided by the Ubuntu Edgy repository?
