Shotwell users,
We're planning to release Shotwell 0.12.0 next week. Now is your last
chance to build Shotwell from trunk, test and help find bugs!
New features since 0.11 include:
- a new straighten tool
- migrated from GTK 2 to GTK 3 (a large change that touched many places
in the code)
- Flickr login now uses OAuth authentication
- Plugins can now implement new import sources. F-Spot import is now
implemented via such a plugin. (Maybe someone will write a digiKam
import plugin soon.)
- Shotwell now imports only photos from the DCIM directory on Android
devices
- saved searches can exclude all photos tagged with a given string
- many bug fixes
It's not hard to build Shotwell from trunk - see
http://yorba.org/shotwell/install/#source . To build from trunk you'll
need the following prerequisites:
- Vala 0.15.2
- a relatively new version of gexiv2, either version 0.3.92 (available
at http://www.yorba.org/download/gexiv2/0.3/) or pulled from git
- librest, which is a new Shotwell dependency. (On Ubuntu, for example,
you want the librest-dev package.)
If you're having trouble building, feel free to ask for help here.
If you do find bugs, please feel free to report them on this mailing
list and/or file tickets at Yorba Redmine. Thanks!
adam
