Bug description:
Binary package hint: phatch

Hi Phatch developers and users,
I have been using Phatch for about a year and think that it is the best tool for many of my photo needs, however, I currently have a problem.  I'm running Phatch 0.2.2 and there seems to be a memory release issue.  Here's the story:

I selected 13 jpg files in Nautilus, used "open with", and clicked Phatch.  Back in 0.1 this didn't do anything, but with the improvements that have been made it actually opened a window to allow me to select the filter that I want.  I selected resize, and viola! It resized them.  It must have used the parameters that I had set last time that I ran resize from the console mode because it didn't give me any options and put the modified photos into that folder, resized to the same resolution.  That was last night...  Now when I look at "ps aux|grep phatch", I see:

USER@computer:~$ ps aux|grep phatch
USER     14003  0.0 15.2 874260 591740 ?       S    Oct12   0:21 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/phatch [/file list]

It's now Oct13 22:06 and Phatch still has 15.2% of my memory tied up.  I'm running Jaunty 64bit with 4 GB ram, so that is something like 500 MB+.

Any ideas?  I haven't killed the process, and haven't shut down the computer in case there is something that I can do to provide debug info.

Thanks for the great program and active development.

Van
