Automatic renaming uses the current date and time instead of the exif ones

[Michele Costantino Soccio]

Binary package hint: gthumb

The automatic renaming function in GThumb does not use the EXIF Date and Time for the '%d' field anymore.
For example if you have a photo taken on the 1 March 2006 at 12.00 and you automatically rename it on the 15 April at 8.00 AM, the '%d' field will be 2007-04-15-08.00.00 instead of 2007-03-01-12.00.00.

The version that seems to be affected by this bug is the gthumb_2.10.2-0ubuntu1.
The old version included in Edgy it worked correctly.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

1. Select one or more image
2. Press F2
3. In the Model textbox insert '%d-###%e' or any other string with the '%d' field
4. Click on Rename

Fixed upstream in development version (svn rev 1604), http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431838.

This is a trivial patch, you might want to pull it into the Ubuntu package:

http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/gthumb/trunk/src/dlg-rename-series.c?r1=1604&r2=1603&pathrev=1604

Would the fix be released also to Ubuntu Feisty?
