[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 376961] [NEW] f-spot crashes during import and some seconds after restarting f-spot

[coCoKNIght]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: f-spot

Jaunty
f-spot 0.5.0.3
I wanted to import my photos folder (3GB) from my backup but during the process f-spot crashed.
After that when I reopen f-spot it crashes again after a few seconds.
Then I've renamed my photos.db to photos.db.bak -> f-spot starts without any fotos. I then tryed to import all the fotos that were already copied to the Pictures folder but the same crash occurred.

I also noticed that some photos were imported multiple times in
different folders. Typically a photo that was taken on say 2008/11/23
would appear in the folder 2008/11/23/ and 2008/11/24/.

F-spot also created some files with the name of a photo but with very
strange extensions. Unfortunatly I've not kept a record of that...

I now have all my photos imported and all is fine but I copied them into the Pictures folder manually and imported folder by folder without the "copy to Pictures folder" option. When I was reaching 1000 photos in f-spot, it got really slow and I even had to restart the computer once because nothing was responding anymore. I tryed to login from tty1 but it would take too long for the password input dialogue to appear.
After reboot f-spot was not slow anymore, which was kind of unexpected.
