[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 54566] Re: f-spot crashes while trying to generate a thumbnail for a particular photo

[Erik Postma]

Alright, finally upgraded to edgy and to f-spot 0.2.0-1ubuntu1. I
haven't tried with the camera yet, but trying to import the file from
disk still gives an error. Here's part of the output to console:

(...)

I'll note that I normally use exec-shield, but I disabled it before running this test.

Is there anything else I can do to make this report more useful? Strace,
gdb? Ask upstream?
