I've ticketed this upstream at http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2626 .

I found out Crop can be used as a workaround for this.

1) Crop out the area with the red eyes
2) Now use the redeye function on the limited picture
3) Use crop again and move the box to an other area of red eyes.
4) When done. Crop the picture again to the full size (or any other desired size).

Hope this can help.

Gustaf,

ha - that's a useful hack. I work on the Shotwell team and I never thought of that!

yorba moved from trac to redmine, unfortunately launchpad has no support for redmine yet (see LP #324387). We'll have to track the status manually. In the meantime watch http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/2369

Bug still exists in Ubuntu 13.04, Shotwell 0.14.1. http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/2369 still open and have no fix.
