[Shotwell] Error: Directory NikonPreview with 21313 entries considered invalid; not read.

[Jim Nelson]

This is a known issue with Exiv2, the photo metadata library Shotwell uses.
The message itself is not a problem: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1872

The crash, however, is worrisome.  Can you follow these steps and send us
the files to examine?
