This can happen when f-spot and beagle are using different versions of sqlite, if you uninstall one version and then recompile beagle, you might have some luck. But if not, could you please attach your logs? Found in ~/.beagle/Logs.

If you don't want to post them, you can e-mail or IM them too me.

It does look like they are built against different SQLite versions - beagle has libsqlite0 (version 2.x) as a dependency, while f-spot has both libsqlite0 (version 2.x) and libsqlite3-0 (3.x) as dependencies. The dual-dependency for f-spot doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me, but perhaps there are reasons.

I checked the f-spot photo db though, and it is indeed a SQLite3 database.

As for my logs, I doubt they'll be of much use - updating a photo in f-spot doesn't cause a peep in any of the logs or beagle-status. I may be able to "fix" this though by using the option to save metadata to the actual image files.

Well, your in luck, its easy enough for beagle to be compiled against sqlite3, just delete all the sqlite2 stuff off your computer and reinstall beagle, and you should be ok. This might be a packaging issue (I'll look into it) but you should be good.

Will this be backported (either the fix or the new version) to Dapper?
