Hi, and thanks for taking time to report this.

Possibly, although the expected behaviour is that the application will
mark the offline photographs as 'missing' and continue to run normally.
With this in mind, can you try the following command line:

SHOTWELL_LOG=1 gdb shotwell 2>&1 | tee shotwell.gdb

...and at the (gdb) prompt, type

run

...and attach the resulting shotwell.gdb?

(Given that this seems to be a hang rather than a hard crash, you may
want to pick some arbitrary amount of time for it to run, then manually
kill it.)
