Comment 13 for bug 588569

Hi Vera,
About 1/3 of the photos would have been RAW, no more, taken with Nikon
digital SLRs, so NEF file formats.
Shotwell was installed as part of the regular Ubuntu 11.04 installation
process. No special debs or ppas involved.
I will try to reproduce myself again to confirm. I've found Unity to have
some problems so will also log into Ubuntu Classic and see if I can
reproduce.
