Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. How are you launching gnome-web-photo?

I first noticed the problem when I wanted to use Shutter to create a website screenshot. Shutter returns the error:
JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 372, caller expects 356.

I then later found out that it was using gnome-web-photo to create the screenshot, to which I tried the following command in gnome-terminal:
serrano@saibot:~$ gnome-web-photo.real http://www.google.com/
gnome-web-photo.real: error while loading shared libraries: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

That's the problem, you should be using gnome-web-photo, not
gnome-web-photo.real

You are right. It works just fine without the .real suffix. Then I don't understand why "gnome-web-photo --help" prints:

Usage:
  gnome-web-photo.real [OPTION...]

Guess I should file a bug for Shutter, since this isn't a gnome-web-photo bug.
