Bug description:
  [ Description & repro ]

  shotwell 0.20.1-0ubuntu1 (Utopic release)

  To replicate:
  -launch shotwell from terminal (to see output)
  -import images into shotwell
  -drag select images
  -file->'Set as Desktop slideshow'
  -nothing happens, except terminal output (pasted below)

  Expected behaviour:
  -window spans asking to select settings

  Actual:

  Errors spawned on terminal:
  gijs@gijs-desktop:~$ shotwell

  (shotwell:19613): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_set_type_hint: assertion
  'GTK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

  …

  and the window isn't launched.

  [ Regression potential ]

  I uploaded the new upstream release to get another bug fix. It's a
  partial fix for gnome bug #738245, to catch and bail out on some
  rendering failures. I can't think what but maybe this could cause
  issues if the fix is wrong.

  There are also some po updates which aren't relevant for us.
