So I'm trying to build from the latest git source, to get the fix for this:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/862692

I've installed vala 0.17.2 from the release tarball onto Debian
testing, cloned the repo, but the build crashes apparently with a Vala
compiler problem:

[...snip...]

GCC version:

$ gcc --version
gcc (Debian 4.7.1-2) 4.7.1

Then I tried to use the latest vala git source, but for various
reasons I was unable to get it to build (but that's outside of the
scope of this list). Is the latest vala required or is the latest
release version sufficient? If so, anybody know what's going on?
