Bug Description
Binary package hint: f-spot
I just did a fresh install of Kubuntu gutsy, and then did a full upgrade through adept. Since I have been managing my photos on this machine, I did an install of f-spot. Now, upon opening f-spot, I get an error re: dbus.
F-Spot cannot find the Dbus session bus. Make sure dbus is configured properly or start a new session for f-spot "dbus-launch f-spot"
and then the following error details are included:
An unhandled exception was thrown: F-Spot cannot find the Dbus session bus. Make sure dbus is configured properly or start a new session for f-spot using "dbus-launch f-spot"

I tried running dbus-launch f-spot, but only got errors. I also tried reinstalling dbus and f-spot through adept, but that did not change anything (not that I really expected that to work, but hey).
Now, I previously had f-spot on this computer, so the original files are all still there in my home partition. Could this have caused the problem? I wouldn't have thought so...
Thanks, Bryan
Thanks for your comments. This does not appear to be a bug report as such. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise your question in the support tracker. http:// launchpad. net/support ; Looks like your dbus service is not running. not a f-spot problem.
