Shotwell in Lucid

Running Lucid. Noticed Shotwell will be the default photo mgr in new
releases - also looks pretty good, so thought I'd get a head start
learning it. The Shotwell version in the repos is quite old [0.5].
There is a newer backport in a PPA that states NOT to use it because
it is "guaranteed to break your computer". Hmmm...

Has anyone running Lucid used a later version without 'breaking the
computer'? If so, where was it?

The PPA also backports several other pkgs - is this the reason it
breaks stuff?

If I do try the gamble, and it breaks stuff, how can I recover to
where I was?

Any other ideas to get a later version?

Thanks,

rikona
