Description Martin L ü c h e m 2007-06-08 08:47:03 UTC
Version:           1.4.1 (using KDE 3.5.7, Debian Package 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-1~campus1 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.21-1-686

The application crashes when I click plugins or try to change settings. 

I deleted gwenviewrc but this did not help. The problem appeared after the last update of KDE.

Please read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports in order to provide a backtrace. There's not much we can do with this amount of information.

in addition to comment #1 did you upgrade kde only or gwenview as well? Are you sure libkipi is correctly installed on your system? and kipi-plugins which versione they are? maybe a missing dep in packages could have that side effect.

Please provide more info.

hmm, heard somewhere, there is a bug on debian/ubuntu side for that so i assume it as the same problem.
The problem is due to different exiv2 packages version installed on system.
kipi-plugins and related libkexiv2 needs a recent version of exiv2/libexiv2 that can lay on the system together the old one that could/should be needed by gwenview. The best way to fix the problem is to ask debian maintainers to rebuild all the application aganinst new (at least the same) exiv2 library.
kde-imaging team is studying a way to avoid that, not easy though....

If reporter has more info about this bug can re-open it.
