Details

I just installed f-spot with pacman -S f-spot... But when I try to start it many lines of errors are given out to the console and it doesn't start.

Only sometimes f-spot starts, but when clicking on "File" "Import" it crashes again...

Attached is the output of the console

Here the output when running f-spot as root:

[root@myhost jan]# f-spot

Try running dbus-uuidgen --ensure (do you have dbus 1.0.2-2 installed?)
Comment by Jan de Groot (JGC) - Wednesday, 07 February 2007, 00:21 GMT
Added the dbus-uuidgen command to the postinstall script for dbus 1.0.2-3, f-spot should work fine right after installing/upgrading dbus.

I still get the error message attached above when I click on "Import" even after updating to the latest dbus.

Try updating to libgphoto-2.3.1-1, which fixes some issues with shared dbus connections. AFAIK f-spot uses libghoto2 to import pictures from your camera.

Thanks, that fixed it.
