Description Pierre-YvesChibon 2011-10-26 17:53:29 UTC
Description of problem:
On F16 shotwell seems to be the default image viewer. When I go to a folder and click to visualize a picture, it starts and displays it.
When I go to the next picture (either by the keyboard or the arrow on the bottom right), the picture displayed isn't the next one on the folder.
I cannot make sense on which is the order with which the pictures are started.

I do find this very annoying and consider it as a bug (thus the present report).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ rpm -q shotwell
shotwell-0.10.1-1.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a folder with different images
2. Double click on one
3. Try to go to the next image
  
Actual results:
The image displayed isn't the next one in alphabetical order

Expected results:
The image displayed is the next one in alphabetical order

Was already a problem on F15.

I'm still on F15 (x86) :
$ rpm -q shotwell
shotwell-0.10.1-1.fc15.i686

and this bug is present.
It doesn't happen on the shotwell libraries, but on pictures you view on the fly with shotwell.

Looks like there's a  sorting which is done somewhere, but random-looking, and there's no option to sort pictures in this mode anyway.

Comment 2 Tomas 'Sheldon' Radej 2011-12-25 21:43:54 UTC
I confirm this bug on F16.

Comment 3 Gökhan Sever 2012-02-21 20:51:34 UTC
Confirmed here as well:

$ rpm -q shotwell
shotwell-0.10.1-1.fc16.x86_64

Comment 4 Danil Kolobaev 2012-07-21 12:41:28 UTC
As far as I can see, they fixed it in 0.12.3. I'm using Fedora 16, and had to compile it from source -- http://yorba.org/shotwell/install.html

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2013-01-16 15:23:27 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 16. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '16'.

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 16'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 16 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, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora.

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

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2013-02-13 17:58:37 UTC
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 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.
