[Shotwell] shotwell doesn't start up

[Levente Torok]

Hi Adam,

It was the standard ubuntu 10.10 shotwell 7v2.
I upgraded to 0.8 according to your web site and the problem seems to go away.
Formerly I used the version that was bundled with ubuntu 10.04 ( 0v5
as according to packages.ubuntu.com ).
In the meantime I renamed the home directory of the current user (from
/home/lev3 -> sg.else).
Could it cause this curruption?
Are you eager to solve this issue, or you concentrate on new trunk instead?
Cheers,
Lev
