[Pkg-shotwell-maint] Bug#706152: shotwell: Shotwell crashes by first updating of library on new install

[rc rupp]

Package: shotwell
Version: 0.12.3-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have just made a new install of debian wheezy (testing), running amd64 system
with xfce. After installing shotwell, I copied all my pictures in the standard
Pictures folder and started shotwell to scan the library.
The program keeps on crashing without completing the scan (not really an
import); so far it has only registered about 7200 pictures and films of about
28'000 files altogether.
When running from the command line, it gives the comment "Floating point
exception" after the crash.
The crash occurs when the comment (left bottom of window) in the status bar
changes from "preparing to auto-import pictures..." to "auto-import pictures"
(this message is only shown for a brief moment).
