Hello all,
Up to one and a half year ago, Shotwell
could be installed from the Synaptic repository
of my Linux distro, PCLinuxOS.
But then with version 0.23 the packager gave up.
I do still miss Shotwell for organizing my pictures.
I am not really a software engineer but did some
programming in
Hallo Jens,
Thank you.
I will try and let you know what happens.
Do I have to use the instructions under "Other"?
That is download the stable source tarball,
and use the commands under Build and Install?
PCLinuxOS uses "devel" in the package names for
developers.

Hallo,
I am missing about half of the pictures
in Shotwells event view. Half of the events
have just a grey square instead of one of the
pictures associated with the event.
The other events show one of the associated pictures.
Is there a way to update the event view
or the event picture?

Hi Jens Georg,
Thanks! I installed over the old version,
got all types of obscure warnings but it compiled
and now 0.26.3 works as well as 0.26.0 ;-)

With the renaming facility of jhead you can place the files in the

*This* is what works for me.
For old pics that I scan for instance, I use *jhead* to make a basic

Two questions:
Now if she adds photo's manually to the ~/Pictures folder

Do you have other suggestions for making the transition to shotwell?
