Bug Description
If you install f-spot with dependencies without actually having Gnome installed, the menu for opening a photo in another application is empty. Installing Gnome fixes the problem. My guess is a missed dependency somewhere.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Kubuntu 8.04 with KDE4 (KDE3.x is likely to yield the same result)
2. Install f-spot and its dependencies with aptitude
3. Right-click photo and choose Open with
Actual results:
Menu says "No applications available"
Expected results:
A list of my installed photo editing applications, such as Gimp

Thanks for reporting bugs. However, this one does not look like a real bug to me: when you install F-Spot, you don't always want to have GIMP coming with it. Thus, it is normal that you cannot edit photos since you have no image processing app. If you need one, just manually install GIMP.
We may possibly see this as a KDE issue: they could provide an image manipulation program in the default desktop, but this is a problem since AFAIK KDE has no such program. Am I missing something?
