I saw them on sourceforge, I tried to install, but f-spot says core
0.7 not found. I think there is another repository missing, but for
now I am not using the 7 series, I did  a test the other day and
f-spot said «corrupt IPTC, can't write on the photo, falling back to
xmp sidecar». The sad part is that I just opened the application,
WITHOUT writing anything or updating or whatever, so it seems we are
back to the old problem where f-spots writes on my photos WITHOUT
telling me.

This is pretty annoying. I hope it did not screw up my collection
(like with the date/time issue of pre-07 series).

By the way, the exiassign is not working for me (exif data already
present, if I try --force it crashes).
