Bug Description

Fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04.1 but I have all updates (no backports) until Nov 21, 2008. I have never opened F-spot before, it popped up when I plugged my Nikon DC 995 camera in the USB port.

The Problem:
F-spot complains that a 'Photos' folder is not present.
F-spot creates the folder.
F-spot dumps all pictures into ~ ( /home/username )

Steps to reproduce:
1. Fresh Ubuntu.
2. Check to see if 'Photos' folder is present.
3. If not, plug in digital camera.
4. Import a bunch of pictures, leave all settings at default.
5. F-spot will behave in manner described.
