Comment 1 caulier.gilles 2007-04-26 07:46:06 UTC

Leo, 

your backtrace is unsuitable. There is no informations to hack...

Please try to run digiKam under GDB like it's explained on this page :

http://www.digikam.org/?q=contrib

Gilles Caulier

PS: Witch Exiv2 release you use ?

Comment 2 Arnd Baecker 2007-06-06 16:53:16 UTC

Leo, any news on this crash?
Could you try 0.9.2beta3 to see if the problem still exists?

Comment 3 Leo Mantovani 2007-06-06 18:37:39 UTC

Hi Gilles,
when I made this post I was experiencing similar crash with Ktorrent too.

Subsequently, several updates appeared from Ubuntu official repositories, many related to KDE desktop components, and after some of those updates (I keep PC maniacally updated ) both Ktorrent and Digikam crashes disappeared.

I'm convinced it was a crash caused by some KDE library.

I'm sorry I did not support you with GDB, I'm too much donkey for such task :-( 

Thank you very much for your attention.

Comment 4 Arnd Baecker 2007-06-06 18:58:44 UTC

Ok, thanks for the feedback!
As the crashes are gone, I close the bug.
