Thank you for reporting this issue. This is actually used by the publishing plugin, so it is required: ldd /usr/lib/shotwell/plugins/builtin/shotwell-publishing.so | grep libaccounts libaccounts-glib.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libaccounts-glib.so.0 (0x00007f1e51cb6000)
Debian doesn't seem to have this library, so it can't build in support for it. The library itself is only 38k and doesn't bring in anything that unusual (Depends: libc6 (>= 2.17), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.37.3), libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.5.9), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4)). Please report any other issues you may find. ** Changed in: shotwell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to shotwell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436467 Title: Why is libaccounts-glib0 a hard dependancy of an image viewer? Status in shotwell package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I don't expect an image viewer to require the single sign-on package. I should be able to install Shotwell without it, or remove the package without losing Shotwell. The Debian version does not require it.
