Camera import in F-Spot does not care for default import settings

[Clemens Adolphs]

Binary package hint: f-spot

This is what I do:

Plug in my camera (Canon EOS 400D). F-Spot starts. I cancel the dialog, then go "Photo"->"Import".
The program shows the import dialogue with "Import Source" on top, a preview area below, the input field for tags below, and finally the three check-boxes "Detect duplicates", "Copy files to Photo folder" and "Include Subfolders".

Now I select my camera from the input source dropdown.
What happens then is that a new import dialog opens, where there is neither the "Include Subfolders" nor the "Copy files to Photo folder" options. So I do not have the option of automatically creating a folder according to the date etc. of the photo, but have to set the destination manually.

This does not happen if I choose a local folder as input source.

I slightly remember that after I initially installed f-spot, it did work as expected, but now all of a sudden it ignores the setting that ~/Photos should be the default import folder :/
