[Shotwell] shotwell doesn't start up

[Adam Dingle]

A couple of clarifications:

The Shotwell PPA currently contains Shotwell 0.8 for Ubuntu 10.10
(Maverick), but only Shotwell 0.7 for Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid).  We plan to
update the PPA within the next week to include Shotwell 0.8 for Lucid as
well.

I fully expect that Ubuntu will include Shotwell 0.8 in Natty within the
next couple of weeks.  We're planning to release Shotwell 0.9 in March, and
our plan is for 0.9 to be included in the final releases of both Ubuntu
11.04 (Natty) and Fedora 15.
