I have an EOS 5D and raw images work fine with Shotwell for that camera
so the 60D may have introduced a new version of the CR2 format. It won't
solve your immediate problem but I suggest that you send a description
of your problem to the Shotwell mailing list [1] as they will be very
keen to hear of any problem and solve it for the upcoming 0.8 if they
can.
