[Shotwell] [Fwd: Re: [ubuntu-uk] Problems with CR2 files from a Canon 60D]

[Bruno Girin]

Hi all,

Here's a follow up from Vince on his issue with RAW files coming out of
his EOS 60D. In particular, you'll find a link to a copy of the original
file and associated JPEG. Following that email, we had an exchange on
the ubuntu-uk mailing list, Vince tried to upgrade libraw to version
0.12 (which allegedly added support for the 60D) but to no avail. I'll
try Shotwell trunk with different versions of libraw when I can (maybe
tomorrow) and will report back.

Cheers,

Bruno
