Description Eduardo Mercovich 2006-03-10 12:51:01 UTC 
In big collections, a search for similar images would be a great feature. 

A package for this already exists (althought I am no programmer and maybe it is not the most adecuate): gnuift

Otherwise, F-spot is great and each day better. Thanks for this fine tool. :-)

Regards...

another project doing search based on similarity:
http://www.imgseek.net/
Comment 2 Eduardo Mercovich 2006-09-07 14:39:00 UTC 
Yes, imgseek works OK, I tried it in my Debian laptop. 

Since any of both programs (and maybe others) are working OK, why don't integrate that function in F-spot? 

Just imagine, make a rought draft of point to a photo and f-spot finds the similar ones... Grrrrreat.    :-)
Comment 3 ulugeyik 2006-11-30 20:34:33 UTC 
I agree. I think that would be very useful on some occasions. I would say that simpler things such as similarity based on name, data/time from exif tags and others would be more practical though.

F-Spot has moved to https://github.com/f-spot/f-spot/issues

If this Bugzilla ticket is still valid in a recent version of F-Spot, please feel free to post this topic as a ticket in the F-Spot project on GitHub.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping as we are planning to shut down GNOME Bugzilla in favor of GNOME Gitlab.
