F-Spot 0.6.0

The most recent version of F-Spot is 0.6.0, released Aug 07, 2009. When would we have updated the package from Extra?

Is there a better photo manager preferably gtk based and not mono based?

Re: F-Spot 0.6.0

The package will be updated when the maintainer has time to do it. It's flagged out of date, so he is aware that there is a new upstream release.

You can also build the package yourself.

Check out http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS … ild_System .

Will have to change the PKGBUILD so it gets the newer version though smile.

Hello djszapi!

gphoto2 and gtkam are ok, but I am really looking for something better than f-spot.
solang is really promising, but it's just too young.

would be nice too see what arch users use for photos big_smile

"I use the picasa-beta package from AUR." -> There is a vim-plugin for it (for geeks)

Thanks for the advice. After waiting some time I've build the new version and everything works great so far.
