Hi Jim, I import and copy my photos from /home/grant/photodump/ to /home/grant/Pictures/. I have: # updatedb && locate IMG_20130303_144420 /home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg # "Shotwell Import Log.txt" says: /home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg duplicates existing media item /home/grant/photodump/IMG_20130303_144420.jpg Can you help me reconcile this? - Grant > I imported/copied a large number of photos into shotwell from a folder and I > was about to delete the folder but I noticed at least several photos that > did not import or copy. Why would some photos import and not others? - Grant _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
