[Bug 1314904] Re: Remote publishing does not work in Unity on trusty/utopic

 

I know Google has already discontinued Picasa in favor of Google
Photos[1], so at first I was not surprised "insert" is not valid in
Google's Picasa API [2].  However, with more investigation, I couldn't
find any separate API for Google Photos (it seems that the Picasa API
still serves as the API for Google Photos). So, perhaps there is
something wrong with *this* API interaction.

Although I've setup the Google account in Ubuntu System Settings ->
"Online Accounts", I'm unable to use that account in Shotwell to publish
to 'Picasa' (Google Photos).  I get a 400 error Invalid request.

tail ~/.cache/shotwell/shotwell.log

Title:
  Remote publishing does not work in Unity on trusty/utopic

Status in shotwell package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in shotwell source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The publish dialogue fails to open the online account configuration.

  [Test Case]

  * Click on a photo
  * Select 'Publish' in the 'File' menu
  * Click on the top right corner where it says 'Piwigo'
  * Click on 'Add more accounts...'

  That should open the account configuration panel from settings.

  [Regression Potential]

  The fix just changes the command called by that code, so there is no
  real risk of regression.
