Hello I ran into an behaviour, which is really unacceptable. The setup is that I have shotwell storage on NFS-mount (to access files from various computers), /media/Photo. I have an symlink ~/.shotwell -> /media/Photo/.shotwell (on every machine, including workstation which acts as an NFS-server)
First, there is an speed issue with shotwell when used like this from remote machine, but that's a whole another matter and not actually the problem at hand. I imported ~100 photos from laptop to shotwell (which access data over WLAN-link and NFS) and, here's the strange part: I started shotwell on my workstation and saw those pictures for a while, but then "something" happened and those photos disappeared. Perhaps shotwell did some kind of reindex/whatever, I don't know. Anyways, the result is, that those photos are missing. There's no files whatsoever on /media/Photo/2010/08. On the laptop, even if the import process took ages, shotwell responded "~100 photos imported succesfully, nn duplicates not imported" (can't remember exact words, but you get the idea). Is this some kind of feature, that shotwell removes actual files if they're not in database or what? In any ways, this kind of automated removal of files is quite dangerous and I'd like to know what happened in the first place and how to prevent that from happening again. -- Take _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
