Original description:
If I have an apostrophe (') in a file name (e.g., Julie's Birthday), Shotwell's right-click context menu option "Show in File Manager" will not work. If I remove the apostrophe from the file name, then "Show in File Manager" works.
None of my other programs have a problem with apostrophes in the file name. Is this a Shotwell bug? Shouldn't "Show in File Manager" work even when an apostrophe is in the file name?

Sounds like a bug. We should fix this for 0.13.

Hi Jason,
Can you tell us what version you're running? I ask because this bug sounds as if it might be the same one reported in ticket 4983 . If you're on an older version, the problem may be fixed by migrating to a newer version.
If you're using 0.12.x and seeing this happen, please let us know, as it may indicate that the original bugfix was incorrectly written, and this needs to be addressed right away.

Hi again,
I misspoke; we did fix this, as noted above, but the fix hasn't made it into any releases yet.
If you feel comfortable building packages from source, you might try cloning our git repository, building Shotwell from there and running that to get a fixed version; otherwise, the fix will be available in the next official release.
