I need to copy my photo library (now maintained in Shotwell) from Linux to
MS Windows (yes, I know, heresy) so that other members of my family can
enjoy my photo library. The documentation for Sqlite says that the database
file is cross-platform.
1) does this mean I can simply copy the database file across to MS Windows
and use as is?
2) if I created an identical path on the MS Windows system can I use the
database file without further changes?
3) alternatively will I need to write a small program (Python is my
preference) to adjust the path in PhotoTable.filename?
4) if so, is an absolute path necessary or can I use a relative path?
5) what other considerations should I keep in mind?

This raises the more general question of copying a Shotwell library to
another machine in a different location. Do you plan to make provision for
that?

Peter.
