Hello Everyone,
I didn't have much time lately but I wanted to try the new Ubuntu version and
of course the new Shotwell version.
After upgrading to Natty I noticed that I wasn't able to start Shotwell
anymore. I got this error:
shotwell: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.6: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
So I checked which version of libexiv2 is installed and it seems to be
libexiv2.so.10. I already tried reinstalling both Shotwell and libexiv2 but
this didn't help.
Compiling the new Shotwell version from trunk gave me this error message:
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libexiv2.so.6, needed by /usr/local/lib/libgexiv2.so, not
found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
This is pretty strange because Natty runs Shotwell without any problems on my
NetBook and a 64Bit virtual machine.
The command "locate libexiv2" gave me these results:
/usr/lib/libexiv2.a> /usr/lib/libexiv2.la> /usr/lib/libexiv2.so> /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.10>

Did anyone else have this problem or any idea how to solve it?
Looks to me like your installation of gexiv2 in /usr/local is trying to
pull in an older version of exiv2 (libexiv2.so.6). On Natty, you should
be able to use both libexiv2 and libgexiv2 from the Natty repository, so
you shouldn't need those installed locally at all. So I'd uninstall
gexiv2 from /usr/local - that should help.
