F-spot slideshow renders slide transitions incorrectly

[Mathijs]

Binary package hint: f-spot

F-spot 0.4.0 renders slide transitions incorrectly. The exact behavior is hard to predict; for pictures larger than the screen size, it seems that the start frame of each animation uses only a small part of the upper left corner of the image that is being transitioned to. For images smaller than the screen size, the start frame usually consist of the small image in the upper left corner with the edges smeared out over the entire screen. A transition also seems to inherit the weird rendering of the previous one; in a slideshow with one 'small' and one 'large' image, the start frame of large image is rendered as I previously described the rendering of the small image.

All this rendering madness happens with all available slide transition types. It happens both with and without desktop effect enabled. I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy with a Nvidia 8600GT graphics card and the proprietary drivers from the Ubuntu repository.
