Description Ismael Orenstein 2006-12-12 01:53:07 UTC

Version:           SVN (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 20040412 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3-r6, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
 
OS:                Linux

My KPhotoAlbum crashs (sometimes with SIGABRT, sometimes with SIGSEGV) everytime I try to read EXIF information.

I already had a index.xml file, however without EXIF support. After compiling it in, the problem occurs when I use the "Maintance | Read EXIF info" command or when I try to see the EXIF info manually.

Digikam and Konqueror can read the EXIF information without problems.

I tried renaming the index.xml file and restarting from scratch. KPhotoAlbum asks for a directory where to build it's database and then crashes (probably when trying to get the EXIF information)

I'm using the following gentoo packages:

kphotoalbum-2.2
libkexif-0.2.1 (the same problem occured with 0.2.5)
exif-0.6.9

I compiled both libkexif and kphotoalbum with the debug USE flag, but the backtrace wasn't helpful. Any tips on how to get more information would be nice !

Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1".

Comment 1 Jesper Pedersen 2006-12-12 07:31:50 UTC

Could you please try and compile you KPhotoAlbum with debug information (A 
switch to configure IIRC) and then resent me the backtrace.

For how to get meningful bactraces on Gentoo, please see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml

Comment 3 Jochen WErsdörfer 2007-05-27 12:08:07 UTC

Probably i'm having the same problem, using kphotoalbum 3.0.2 and kde 3.5.6 on amd64 with gentoo. Seems to be a bug in libexiv - here's the backtrace:

Comment 4 Jan Kundrát 2007-05-27 22:46:23 UTC

Jochen, could you please post result of `emerge -pv kphotoalbum exiv2 libkexiv2` and `emerge --info`?

Comment 5 Jan Kundrát 2007-06-10 00:04:40 UTC

It's likely result of version mismatch of exiv2. If it still doesn't work after a rebuild, please attach information requested in comment #4 and reopen. Closing in the meanwhile, but thanks for reporting anyway.
