[Shotwell] Shotwell - 0.12.3 build errors

[firebird209]

Hello once again,

I have just installed Slackware 64bit (-current) on my desktop computer (the failing builds were occuring on my laptop) and shotwell 0.12.3 built perfectly, without issue. Therefore, it seems there is something else weird, broken, or something on my laptop install, something I am not sure what is atm but seems to affect shotwell building successfully.

Just wanted to post with this latest development, if you will. Thank you.
