So, I'm having a problem in 0.14 under Ubuntu (and previous versions)- it doesn't re-find missing photos properly.
If I start up Shotwell with my external drive unplugged, it (of course) realizes it can't actually find the photos on it, and removes them. The problem is, when I mount the drive, close shotwell and re-open it, it looks like it's scanning to see if they've come back... and doesn't find any of them, silently stops scanning and leaves me with an empty library. They are, however, all there and visible to Nautilus, etc in the same place that the extended information dialog says they should be. I'd love to be able to simply turn off this feature, but I'd settle for the re-scan to actually work and repatriate my photos. Can I flip a toggle in the database "by hand' to mark them "present"? Right now my photos are all in purgatory: present, but I can't do anything with them in Shotwell. Oddly, the "remove from library" button is *also* greyed out on the 'missing' photos. P.S: My ~/.shotwell directory is... not there anymore, after upgrading to 0.14. Though my library seems to be still somewhere, because it knows about all my missing photos. Where did it go?! _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
