Status in “f-spot” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: f-spot

When I connect my camera (Canon EOS 1000D) to my computer,
f-spot (0.8.0) will start and show the import window asking me to select an
import source (directory or camera). When I select my camera, f-spot
will try to show the preview images for the cr2 files, which will take a
lot of time, although there are just a few photos on the camera. After a
while, the thumbnails all show up with date 01.01.0001 (german format).

When I press the import button now, f-spot will try to import the files
and crash after a while. Afterwards, the database will be corrupted and
f-spot will crash again shortly after each start.

I could import the images from my camera without any problems using
shotwell. Afterwards, I could import the cr2 files from the directory,
where shotwell had saved them, into f-spot via drag'n drop. This way,
everything was imported correctly (including metadata).

This issue appeared after upgrading from Ubuntu lucid to maverick.
