I realised after filing this bug that I probably had a locally compiled version of gexiv2 so I removed the locally compiled library and tried to run Shotwell again, at which point I got this error:
$ shotwell shotwell: error while loading shared libraries: libgexiv2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory And indeed, if I check the libraries installed on the machine, here is what I get: $ ls /usr/lib | grep gexiv libgexiv2.a libgexiv2.so libgexiv2.so.1 libgexiv2.so.1.0.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971828 Title: Shotwell cannot resolve gexiv2_initialize symbol To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/971828/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
