The latest version of photo-management application Shotwell - which added hierarchal tags and BMP support - has been "backported" to Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10. Martin Wimpress is the awesome individual who maintains and packages Shotwell in a PPA for Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 users.
With Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04 long since out, and Ubuntu 11.10 stirring up excitement with every update, it's easy to forget that the 16 month old Long Term Support release of Ubuntu 10.04 remains installed on many a users computer.

The release integrates 'numerous post-release updates' including security updates and 'corrections for high-impact bugs, with a focus on maintaining stability and compatibility with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.'
