Cool, glad it worked!
how to make sure the installed version is the one launched when clicked on the icon? In Shotwell the version shows 0.23.5
$ shotwell --version a self compiled binary will show you the exact git tree e.g. Shotwell 0.23.5 (ec9699e5d7b7e488824eeec4b459437fd4e51b6b) and the following will show you where it's installed $ which shotwell pre-packaged software usually installs to /usr/bin while custom- compiled goes to /usr/local/bin (unless you change the prefix during ./autogen or ./configure)
Not to be rude, but I don't think the point of this mailing list is individual compilation support. There's tons of documentation on building packages on linux in general, so don't be shy to at least google the error message first. If it's really shotwell specific, then yes, this is absolutely the place for. I certainly don't want to discourage people from helping to test and I don't want to intimidate anyone to ask for help if a build doesn't work right away - we all had to learn it - but I do want to encourage a sustainable helping culture.I've compiled your version before, so I didn't expect a new dependency hell to break out since the last time. Look, I don't want to be condescending either, but it's 32 degrees C + humid here and that's around midnight. there is no aircon. It's hard to focus a thought here and it doesn't help when the documentation tells you to run ./configure and that isn't even there.
I get it and I'm feeling for you. We all have our issues (although I'm really glad to only have 60-70% humidity at those temperatures!), I'm just asking to Google for a solution for 3 minutes before posting since answering will also cost time to someone..
and if a package already exists that you want to recompile, chances are high that you'll get all or most dependencies from the version in the repository. Apt has a built in command to install build dependencies: sudo apt-get build-dep shotwellok, then why not including this step in the INSTALL?
It'll error on non-debian based systems, and it doesn't work if the package catalog doesn't contain shotwell on debian based systems. Both can't reasonably be assumed. Even the package names of the dependencies differ from distro to distro.. I guess we just got used to it. Cheers andreas
