[Shotwell] Today, Shotwell can not upload photos to FB

[Erasmo Perez]

Hi Lucas:

You may be right, because just before I leave house for work I made a last
test uploading another pic and Shotwell Connect worked, but the original pic
I intended to upload continued being not published by FB. I then suspected
that maybe there was something wrong with the first picture. On the road to
work I figured that I should extract the exif headers from both pictures and
send them to this list, but that would be tomorrow when I return home from
work.

If it is the case that the ill-formed name is the culprit of the lack of
publication of the pic in FB, the solution will be easier :-)

As soon as I get back home I will try renaming the first pic with an
ASCII-only name and I will let you know the code bahaviour.

Thank you very much :-)

Kind regards for your great help

Erasmo
