yes -- a change in the compilier leads to some *warnings* for
unnecessary code (unreachable return after error) that was needed in
versions <=0.9.4. Getting rid of these warnings came at the cost of
noone being able to compile trunk without the most recent valac,
rendering the build constructions on
http://www.yorba.org/shotwell/install/ and
http://trac.yorba.org/wiki/ShotwellInstallation obsolete.
Most importantly, vala 0.9.5 is not even in Debian Experimental yet
and given that Ubuntu is beyond feature freeze it is very unlikely
that it will be included in Maverick -- this means Shotwell as it is
can't be included as well (what a pity as it is supposed to be the
default image management tool in Maverick :-)).

Best
