[Shotwell] Symlink importing fails

[Lucas Beeler]

Hi George,

Alas, Shotwell does not fully support symbolic links for
user-initiated imports at this time (see
http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2983). Symlink support for manual imports
does have a good chance of making it into Shotwell 0.9 however, which
we plan to release in March. In the meantime, you might try dragging
the original directory that the symlink points to into Shotwell and
using the "import in place" option.

Regards,
Lucas
