[Shotwell] permissions on image files

[Lars O. Grobe]

Hi all,

today, while importing old images form a CD I found, I faced the 
following problem:

I imported my images by dragging them onto the Shotwell window, which 
worked perfectly well. However I found that the date-field was set 
wrong, so I selected the files in Shotwell and attempted to change date 
and time on the original files. This led to an error, that the original 
files could not be changed.

I checked the permissions in my library and found that the file were not 
writeable by the owner (me). This must be due to the fact that they were 
imported from a non-writeable medium. I would still expect Shotwell to 
change the permissions to writeable when importing them into the library 
(which is on a rw-medium) by copying.

Cheers, Lars.
