I went ahead and installed the gstreamer1 packages from the F18 Repo.  I
 did get Shotwell to compile after also rebuilding gexiv2 (from git)

by the way, i don't think the F18 repos have the required version of gexiv2 
(libgexiv2) - another possible change for the install page.

thanks for the reply and keep up the good work.  i really like the folder views.
