Package: gthumb Version: 3:2.6.3-1 Severity: normal My Father's "Vivitar" camera is a usb camera that can be mounted as a usb mass storage device, with a apparently fairly standard dcim/ subsirectory that contains jpegs of the pictures. All the pics on it seem to always have the same date, sometime in 2003, even if I just took the pictures.
I tried to set up gthumb so my Dad could use it to brows the pictures on his camera, and drag them off to nautiuls to copy them off. I made it automatically start up with the camera's photo directory as the default start directory. This worked pretty well, although as noted elsewhere in this BTS, deleting photos really didn't delete them, since the trash is on a different volume. But it broke badly once we deleted all the photos using the camera and took some more, because these new pictures had exactly the same filenames and dates as the first set of pics we took. So gthumb's cached icons for the pictures were all wrong and didn't match the actual pictures anywhere. I could not find a way to turn this cachine off, or even a way to get it to regenerate the thumbnails, except for modifying a picture. I think it's a shame that this makes gthumb unsuitable for this kind of usage, as otherwise it worked pretty well. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gthumb depends on: ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.8.0-4 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.8.1-2 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.8.1-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libexif10 0.6.9-6 library to parse EXIF files ii libgconf2-4 2.8.1-4 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.4.2-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome2-0 2.8.1-2 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.8.0-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeprint2.2-0 2.8.2-1 The GNOME 2.2 print architecture - ii libgnomeprintui2.2-0 2.8.2-2 GNOME 2.2 print architecture User ii libgnomeui-0 2.8.1-3 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.8.4-2 The GNOME virtual file-system libr ii libgphoto2-2 2.1.5-4 gphoto2 digital camera library ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.2-4 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-10 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liborbit2 1:2.12.1-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Session Management ii libtiff4 3.7.1-4 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxml2 2.6.16-3 GNOME XML library ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-9.1 A free electronic cataloging syste ii shared-mime-info 0.15-1 FreeDesktop.org shared MIME databa ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4 compression library - runtime -- see shy jo
