Hi Jim and Joseph, Thanks for your helpful comments.
In contrast to what I reported before, Let me just report: The deskewing problem described below is >not> an issue of shotwell 0.13.0 or of 0.13.1: I did compile+install 0.13.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 (precise), where it did work as it should. The problem does occur under Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal) for both the Ubuntu precompiled package shotwell 0.13.0 and for version 0.13.1 which I did compile myself under Ubuntu 12.10. So I conclude there may be something wrong with the Ubuntu 12.10 gtk package.

Could you perhaps further explain your problem? It sounds like when you attempt to straighten a photo, the slider is stuck at 15 degrees and doesn't move. Is that correct? | -- Jim | On Thu, Nov 8, 2012 at 2:57 AM, Ulf Rehmann <[email protected]> wrote: | I just upgraded from shotwell 0.12.90 to 0.13.0 and/or 0.13.1: | Both 0.13.* versions have problems which did not occur in 0.12.90: | (I am working under Ubuntu 12.10.) | i) If in Preferences/Metadata I check "Write tags, titles, and other | metadata to photo files", the program starts writing to the files, | but seems to always end up in an endless loop, apparently caused by | "modified" files, repeatedly saying (in shotwell.log) something | like | [WRN] No namespace info available for XMP prefix `lr' | This is an old bug, as far as I recall, and was fixed in 0.12.90, | but now does appear again in both 0.13.*. | ii) The deskewing button does not seem to work anymore: I do get a popup | window, however, I cannot modify the angle anymore: Clicking on the | "Angle" field just skews by 15.0 degrees, which cannot further be | modified except by reset to the original state.
