This is what I see in the log file:
L 16444 2014-09-19 12:03:19 [MSG] main.vala:385: Shotwell Photo Manager 0.18.0 L 16444 2014-09-19 12:03:19 [MSG] main.vala:43: Verifying database ... L 16444 2014-09-19 12:03:22 [WRN] DirectoryMonitor.vala:916: Skipping hidden file/directory /home/malsburg/Pictures/.DS_Store And then many more of the "Skipping hidden file" warnings. But I guess these should be ok. Is is possible that the database is messed up? Can I just delete it and have it rebuilt? If yes, where do I find it. Is there another way to extract information from the shotwell process. "shotwell --help" doesn't show a verbose flag. Thank you!
