Photo-organizer that sorts by folder like Picasa does

[hachel]

hi there,

anyone aware of a photo-organizer that sorts by folder like picasa does it? Like when you have all your different albums already neatly sorted into different folders Picasa just lists each folder as a separate album, regardless of date and other information.
It didn't work in f-spot when I last tried (couple of month ago) and I haven't tried it shotwell and gthumb yet because it isn't mentioned anywhere under their respective features.
Also I'm hesitating to download and install both these apps because I have a lot of pictures which take a while to import.

Thanks,

Martin

PS: if any of those other apps has a sorting-method that you think to be superior to sorting-by-folder (and which isn't sorting by date) please tell me so and why

You could try gqview. It is in the Ubuntu repos. The gqview app has been renamed geegie, but the Ubuntu repos still list it as gqview to "ease upgrading from older GQview packages to the new Geeqie package":
