How about even the compiler:
$ make
Shotwell requires Vala compiler 0.20.1 or greater. You are running 0.16.1 \b.
make: *** [valacheck] Error 1
# yum list vala
Available Packages
vala.i686 0.16.1-1.fc17
updates
And before you go down the path that F17 is EOL. There are a lot of people who
have very stable systems running older
releases of Fedora as well as other distros. Including Ubuntu LTS distros that
would like to be able to have a current
and working Shotwell install.
