Oneiric amd64

Hi,

Thank you for reporting this. If you haven't already done so, can you try running Shotwell from the command line with the debugger and logging enabled and try to trigger the bug there? You can do this by typing
     SHOTWELL_LOG=1 gdb shotwell
in a command shell window, then typing 'run' at the '(gdb)' prompt.

If you are able to get Shotwell to crash again after doing this, please type 'bt' at the (gdb) prompt, and copy and paste the resulting info here. We can use this info to determine what Shotwell was trying to do at the time of the crash, and this will aid us in reproducing and fixing the problem.

This time shotwell goes to greyout and did not return

This now looks like this bug, which we fixed in Shotwell 0.11.3:

Hopefully Ubuntu will push 0.11.3 (or later) to Oneiric soon.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
