Original description:
If I remove ~/.shotwell and ~/Pictures and then reimport all photos from my camera, they will all be placed in a single folder, e.g. /home/adam/Pictures/2009/07/20 (today's date). Instead, the photos should be placed in separate folders according to the date when each photo was taken.

This is a bug with libgphoto2, not Shotwell. The latest version of libgphoto2 (2.4.6) does not accurately return EXIF information from the camera. I submitted a patch to the gPhoto crew, but it has not been propagated to general release.
If this is something we don't want to wait for the gPhoto guys to fix, we could work around it by examining the EXIF data once the picture file has been pulled off the camera.

Aha – good to know. Does libgphoto have a bug tracking system? If so, could you link to the libgphoto bug here?
