[ ... ] rsync is just a very efficient way of doing

have the same directory structure (to the pictures folder) on both
machines. You also need the same (or close) versions of shotwell on
the two machines.
There seems to be something else going on that I can't track down. I'm
using the recipe:
rsync -rav --stats --delete kitchen:/images/ /images
rsync -rav --stats --delete kitchen:/home/dougie/.shotwell/
/home/dougie/.config/shotwell
with the same distro (Linux Mint Debian) on both desktop and netbook and
with shotwell compiled.
What I find is that starting shotwell on the netbook initially looks ok,
but shotwell hangs and sits hogging 100% CPU. I wondered if it was a
caching thing but I've left it for about an hour and it's unresponsive.
My guess is that shotwell has settings stored somewhere else that I need
to manually tweak something on the netbook. For instance, on the
desktop the log file shows the line:
L 16985 2011-09-25 16:24:04 [DBG] LibraryWindow.vala:295:
on_library_monitor_installed: /images
but on the netbook it shows /Pictures in instead of /images.
Settings were mentioned earlier this month by Eric Gregory (they're in
GSettings from 0.11 onwards) but I can't figure out how to change them.
I've tried an uninstall, reinstall on the netbook and deleted the
.shotwell directory to give it a clean start, but shotwell hangs on
startup and I can't access any of its menus. I'm guessing there's some
other configuration settings somewhere.
