Hi there, I've moved my photos and shotwell to a new PC (fedora 17 to ubuntu 12.10) and the RAW+JPEG are not paired anymore. On fedora 17, I installed shotwell 0.13 from source. On ubuntu 12.10 I use the shotwell 0.13.1 from the official repositories.
First, I moved my old shotwell database to /home/user/.local/share/shotwell/data/photos.db overwriting the (empty?) one. On my old machine, photos were stored at /media/daten/fotos/ now they are stored at /home/user/Bilder/ After moving files, I started shotwell, set default photo path to /home/user/Bilder/, enabled the rescan option and set default developer to shotwell. (I have set it to shotwell, because I've had problems in the past with priorities of shotwell using embedded JPEG instead of full resolution camera developed JPEG versions. usually I set it manually to camera afterwards.) However, shotwell rediscovers (took ages) my images, both JPEG and RAW, but separately. That is, I see the RAW version beside the JPEG. Ther does not seem to be a way to re-combine them. Setting back the developer for a particular RAW photo to camera makes it disapper first. After a relaunch of shotwell, it reappears beside the JPEG. For some files, opening the RAW in full view makes it disappear again. For other files, opening the RAW provides a black screen with the message that source file at /media/daten/fotos is missing. It then disappears again. Most of my tags seem to be lost. RAW and JPEG versions are not combined and reside in separate events. Is there a way to fix this? Or do I have to re-import everything manually. I find, that moving it to the DCIM folder on my camera's storage card while restoring the original name for the JPG makes it possible to perform a clean new import of the photos. By the way, there does not seem to be a problem for ordinary JPEG photos. However, RAW+JPEG support in shotwell seem to be broken. I'm looking foreward to some fixes in 0.14.
