Hi,I just installed ArchLinux on my new Notebook (Thinkpad W520). Now I tried to import photos from my SD-Card on my HDD with shotwell. The import works, but when the month contains an umlaut (e.g. March in Germin is März -> "ä"), it does not display the date and also does not categorize those photos correctly.
So in 12.04, shotwell was working fine, I could view all my photos and everything was tagged and just great.
The photos and profile used was copied over from another 12.04 install and I simply ran shotwell and everything was there, tags and all.
During 12.10 testing, I copied over the .shotwell from 12.04 again, along with all my photos but it finds nothing, says nothing is in my library.

Shotwell is the Ubuntu’s default photo manager. It lets you import photos from disk or camera, organize them in various ways, view them in full-window or fullscreen mode, and export them to share with others. It can also publish photos on various websites such as PicasaWeb, Flickr, Facebook and more.
Yorba Foundation, the developers of Shotwell, have announced the immediate availability for download of Shotwell 0.14.1.
Shotwell 0.14.1 is the first maintenance release for this particular branch and it's quite an upgrade from the version released a few weeks ago.
Highlights of Shotwell 0.14.1:
• A critical issue that would cause Shotwell to close unexpectedly, when working with RAW photo
I want to organize my photos as follows:
my own folder structure, not date-based
not in ~/Pictures
automatically detect new photos in my folder structure (including in subfolders)
do not create copies of the photos (I need the harddrive space!)
Is this possible with Shotwell, and how do I do it? I really don't want Shotwell to move my files around.
This has been bothering me for a long time. I have a fairly default installation of Fedora 16 with Gnome 3.
I have been loading my RAW files to my Windows My Pictures folder. I have Shotwell configured to check for new files (that directory) but when I click on this month, the new pictures aren't showing up.
IF I import IN shotwell, it works. But it doesn't if I just dragndrop etc. Not sure why it's not finding the newly added pictures.

Is there a way to give shotwell a factory reset without deleting any of the original photos.
I made a big mess of importing the wrong library followed by the right library and now have 30,000 photos a lot of which are duplicate and rather than sifting through them all I would have thought it easier to start again.
Reinstalling shotwell does not work.
