Shotwell always crashes when changing metadata

Hi Jan,
  Can you confirm the exact version of shotwell, dpkg -l shotwell shows I have 0.8.1-0ubuntu3 and it doesn't crash if I add or change a tag on a picture. (certainly not the one I just tried).

it says: shotwell 0.8.1-1~maverick1

normal adding a tag doesn't crash shotwell, only choosing a tag, selecting all pictures and delete that tag crashes shotwell after a short time (when saving metadata)

Jan,

thanks for the bug report. Could you follow the instructions in the Shotwell FAQ (http://trac.yorba.org/wiki/Shotwell/FAQ) to generate a stack trace and log file and attach them to this bug? That will help us track down what's wrong. Thanks!

i thought i attached the log file on my bug report. it has to be there (post #1)

Jan,

ah, yes - I see the log file now. Thanks.

1) there's a known metadata writing crash which was fixed in the very latest release of libexiv2 - see http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/3104 . If possible, could you build and install libexiv2 0.21.1 and also gexiv2 0.3.0, and then see if the crash goes away? (If it's not obvious how to build these libraries let us know and we can help you.)

2) If step 1 doesn't help, we'll need to see a stack backtrace as well to let us debug further. The Shotwell FAQ explains how you can generate one.
