Alas, this is a known problem. You'll need to uninstall Shotwell and libgexiv2, press "Refresh" in Synaptic, and then reinstall Shotwell (which will also install libgexiv2).
Your database won't be deleted if you uninstall. However, if you'd like to backup your library (always a good idea), follow these directions: http://redmine.yorba.org/projects/shotwell/wiki/ShotwellFAQ#How-can-I -back-up-my-Shotwell-library -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to shotwell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245575 Title: sometimes no controls in viewer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/1245575/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
