I have further information about the crash: The photos are stored on a ntfs drive und there is a shortcut to map the photos folder on the ntfs drive to the original ubuntu photos folder. I also use the drive with Mac OS X on rare circumstances. ntfs was the only format that is suitable for linux/windows and mac. further another reason could be the german interface. I remarked that photos edited in shottwell in natty, were deleted in shotwell oneiric. (the edited versions , the original photo was kept, complete data loss). this might be either because the fotos where named with: originalphotoname_verändert.jpg in natty and originalphotoname_shotwell_verändert.jpg, when they are edited with external editor. but also the changes made by shotwell to the photos made in natty are lost in oneiric, when the file is opened with a double click.
also interesting might be the fact, that shotwell only crashes if I do nothing after starting shotwell for approx. 10 seconds. If I open a photo immediatly, shotwell does not crash. so the reason might be some routine that is executed shortly after starting shotwell.... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877584 Title: shotwell crashes shortly after being startet To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/877584/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
