Earlier this year I retired my elderly Dell PC running Ubuntu 12.04  in favour 
of a new iMac 27".

Virtually every application I was using on the Dell can be replaced with a 
Mac-compiled version, but I'm still running Shotwell in a virtual Ubuntu 
machine, storing all the images in a shared directory on the Mac.

I've found that I've got a number of JPG versions of NEF files I'd previously 
uploaded to the Ubuntu machine, and the migrated to the Mac, for example:

DSC_8937.NEF is accompanied by
DSC_8937_NEF_embedded.jpg
DSC_8937_NEF_shotwell_1.jpg and
DSC_8937_NEF_shotwell.jpg

I'm currently using Shotwell 0.12.3 with Ubuntu 12.04 in a Parallels VM.

Is it safe to delete any or all of these Shotwell-generated JPGs?

Will Shotwell generate a new JPG version if all that's left in a directory is 
the raw NEF file? Or does it only generate this on the initial import?

I don't _need_ the extra space at the moment, but I'd like to dispose of an 
unnecessary overhead and reduce back-up requirements if I can.

Thanks in advance,

Michael
