Bug Description
Binary package hint: f-spot
When you import photos from a digital camera for the first time and your system language is not English, F-Spot gives an error message that it can't find the directory ~/Photos. That's normal, because the directories are localized and in my case called Afbeeldingen, Dutch for Photos. Someone this isn't recognized by F-Spot resulting in an error message, which can scare people, and selecting the home directory as destination for the imported photos.

Thanks for your bug report, this bug report is a duplicate of bug 127315 that F-spot by default uses the hardcoded "photos" directory rather than using the xdg-user-dirs spec which allows for localised directory names.
