could you run f-spot as: f-spot --debug &> f-spot-debug.txt reproduce the crash and attach that resulting file to the report? Thanks in advance.

I will do that in the evening, when I come home.

is libndesk installed and with the right path on your system? could you try to re install it ? it seems that the installation of that library is corrupted someway.

Pedro I have reinstalled libndesk, but no results. Maybe I am going to
reinstall Karmic completly, because I get lots of crash-reports about
python-26, nautilus, firefox etc. Maybe my system is a bit out of
balance.

Pedro, after the latest updates of this evening f-spot is running fine again.
I think my problem is solved.
