So if you copy the path in Extended Information and paste it into the console like this:

$ file <path>

where, of course, path is the Shotwell path, do you see information about the file?

Yes, I checked that- they are there, in the missing files section, and the Extended Information shows the correct path. Of course they briefly weren't there: when I started up Shotwell without the external drive plugged in, but now it's mounted and everything's back as it was. It's as if Shotwell isn't properly rescanning the missing files, though it does briefly say "updating library" or similar, and then it seems to finish updating, but all my photos are still listed as Missing.

Roy, when your photos disappear they should be located in a folder called "Missing Files" at the bottom of the left-hand sidebar.  You can select the photos there.  If you bring up View -> Extended Information, that will display where Shotwell thinks the file should be.  Does that match Nautilus' location?

Aha, there it is. I tried setting the "flags" field to 0 (they were all 8) in the database by hand, and my photos all reappear, but most events are gone and the photos only show up in the whole-library view. So I'm still
stuck.

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?!
