Description of problem: F-spot crashes reliably. This happens when uploading photos to a flickr account, when tagging photos, when rotating them etc... How reproducible: Always, just use f-spot Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use f-spot Actual results: After some operations, f-spot crashes. Expected results: Should just do it's job Additional info: This is what I get after a session (5 minutes of use or less): [Info 15:25:23.085] Initializing DBus [Info 15:25:23.242] Initializing Mono.Addins [Info 15:25:23.497] Starting new FSpot server (f-spot:4695): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: GdkPixbufLoader finalized without calling gdk_pixbuf_loader_close() - this is not allowed.

Experiencing this as well, makes the program virtually unusable. Happens at different times but *very* frequently, can crash it within a few seconds just browsing around photos. Have not been able to identify any one thing that causes it.
Forgot to mention, I'm on F10 x86_64.
I'm having the same problem. Also F10 x86_64. F-spot is virtually unusable - and i can't help worrying about what it could do to my library of over 5000 photos if it's this unstable.
I have the same problem. Every time I want to delete a image from my collection f-spot crashes. Very annoying. I'm using F10 i386
Found this bug in the GNOME Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552272 Based on the comments there it appears we need to update f-spot to at least 0.5.
Same thing here. F10/i386. Delete, rotate, tag, anything -- results in crash. Completely useless at this point. Am I going to have to use kphotoalbum?
Hang in there, I updated the package for 0.5.0 in Fedora CVS and it appears to be building and working fine locally. I haven't yet committed these changes however, trying to contact the package owner to make sure my changes are kosher and he doesn't mind someone else rebuilding. If I can't reach him soon I'll check that I have appropriate permissions and rebuild + push out.
That's good news. I haven't managed to build v0.5.0 on my F10 system - some library problem that i haven't been able to solve yet - so i'm glad to hear it can be done. If there's likely to be an updated package available soon, i'll stop bashing my head against that particular brick wall! Thanks.
