Yorba has released Shotwell 0.7.0, a major update to our digital photo manager. This release includes a host of new features, such as: * Migration support for F-Spot users: Shotwell can import photos directly from your F-Spot library, preserving tags and ratings. * Photos can be rated on a 1-5 star scale or marked as rejected. A filter button supports viewing only photos of a specified rating or better. * A new Last Import page in the sidebar gives you instant access to your most recently imported photo roll. * Sidebar functionality and appearance have been improved with new icons and inline renaming. * Shotwell scans your library files at startup, looking for changes. Maintains library consistency when working with photos in other applications. * Numerous bug fixes and translation updates.
Jotting down initial thoughts: 0.6 introduced new dependencies and 0.7 has substantial changes as well so I might not sure if we can or should push this as an update to an existing release. 0.6 is in rawhide and once we get a 0.7 build on Rawhide and F-14, we would have a much better idea. Perhaps repos.fedorapeople.org can be an option
pushing 0.6 into f13 might be ok, it has had some time in rawhide, at least. Provided the dependencies can be satisfied, that is.
shotwell 0.7 requires libgexiv2 >= 0.2.0 while the available one is 0.1.90.
(In reply to comment #3) > shotwell 0.7 requires libgexiv2 >= 0.2.0 while the available one is 0.1.90. Exact, so I have opened a RFE for a libgexiv2 upgrade for F14 here : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626729
adding to my previous comment, I definitively think we want 0.7 in F14
libgexiv2-0.2.0-1 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13 & 14 & Rawhide.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
