Original description:

Every time I merge two events, Shotwell splits other events to make more
events with the same name. When I merge two events that have a lot of photos;
even more events are split into two! I merged two events that both had about
100 photos and now every other event from the past two years has been split
into two events with the same name. For example, merging February 4, 2008 and
February 4, 2008 will split February 1, 2008 into February 1, 2008 and
February 1, 2008. I simply cannot use this program until the problem is fixed.

p.s - I am using Ubuntu 13.04 daily

Hi and thank you for taking time to report this.

Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be reproducible for us here (although
exploration did lead to us finding a possible source of confusion with event
splitting and merging when a search filter was active). May we know:

  * Approximately how many images are in your library
  * Approximately how many photos are in the events being worked on
