Dear Gentlemen,
I had some problems with F-Spot when migrating from FC6 to the latest
Ubuntu Feisty. When F-Spot loads, it keeps throwing "Can't connect to
d-bus" messages on the terminal. After a bit of investigation, I found
out that the the version of sqlite that f-spot is using in FC6 is v2 of
sqlite while Feisty uses v3. I migrated photos.db to v3 of sqlite by
dumping the whole database and then created a new database using
sqlite3. It is working correctly now.
This is not a bug report, but rather, a suggestion to put this info up
on the f-spot website. I spent a couple of hours trying to find out the
cause of the problem and in my opinion, it will save fellow f-spot users
a lot of time if this information gets posted somewhere on the website.
I am willing to write a short howto on this problem and email it here so
that anyone with access to the F-Spot website (I can't create an
account) can post it on the F-Spot website.
What do you think?
Cheers,
Jeremy Tan
