Importing photos from camera fails

[Carlos Arenas]

Binary package hint: f-spot

Importing pics from this camera was working fine until a few days ago. Am running Ubuntu 8.10 and f-spot 0.5.0.3-0ubuntu2.

Camera is conneced and turned on, f-spot launches, identifies pics on camera, I select the pics to import, and import process fails.

A dialog box entitles "F-Spot Encountered a Fatal Error" appears containing the following details:

I am embarrassed to notify you that the problem was caused by my having run out of disk space. Once space was made available, importing worked fine.

closing the bug then, thanks.
