Yorba released another new version of its photo management application called Shotwell, featuring important bugfixes and translation updates.

Among bugs that were fixed there's a couple of crashers, like e.g. when Pictures folder is actually a symbolic link. Apart from that gexiv2 library used by Shotwell was updated. Gexiv2 is a wrapper for Exiv2 library that takes care of Exif, IPTC and XMP metadata. As usual, both Shotwell and gexiv2 are available for Ubuntu users from Yorba's PPA.
