dbus-1.0.0          A message bus system for inter-application communication
dbus-glib-0.72      GLib bindings for the D-BUS messaging system
dbus-sharp-0.62_17  Mono interface to the D-BUS messaging system
f-spot-0.2.1_1,1    Personal photo management to the GNOME desktop
libgphoto2-2.2.1_1  A universal digital camera picture control tool

>Description:
	libgphoto2 should not close the dbus connection in
	libgphoto2_port/disk/disk.c as this connection is a shared connection.
	Closing a shared connection causes an error from dbus, wich in turn
	leads to crashing applications (her: f-spot).
	See also: http://gphoto.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gphoto/trunk/libgphoto2/libgphoto2_port/disk/disk.c?view=log#rev9150
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Start f-spot, go to File->Import and watch the error message.

>Fix:

	Upstream should release a new version of libgphoto2. For the time
	being, use the patch below:
