Comment 3 for bug 1002537

Hi Laura, the files are jpg, around 800kb in size. If I pack them in zip the issue persists. The only workaround is to transform them at the Send To dialog by scaling them. I can't reproduce it on a different machine. Could this be a file permission issue? I am sharing my database and photos with a different user and so the ownership of the photos and the shotwell database is:

-rw-r--r-- 1 alex otheruser 7974912 May 22 17:35 .shotwell/data/photo.db

instead of the default:

-rw-r--r-- 1 alex alex 7974912 May 22 17:35 .shotwell/data/photo.db

I can't reproduce this on my other computer where I have just one user setup.
