This looks like a duplicate of bug #204042, which is fixed in the latest version of Exiv2, 0.19, released yesterday :) Please upgrade Exiv2 and report back whether the problem still exists (you'll need to at the very least also re-compile libkexiv2). Andreas Compiled Exiv2, 0.19, but application still crashes giving the same crash report. Will try to recompile everything from scratch again to check. As usual with Ubuntu, do _not_ use an old beta5 release of digiKam, but last 1.0.0 final : http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/digikam Gilles Caulier Please check that the libexiv2.so file you are using when crashing (you see it in the backtrace, above it is /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.5) is indeed the one you installed when compiling 0.19. Check the file date. From the debug output on the console (run kdebugdialog to enable code 50003 before) you should be able to find out the file causing the crash and provide it here. digiKam 1.1. release will be done in few days. Please check if this entry still valid. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier digiKam and Kipi-plugins 1.2.0 are out. Please check if crash is still valid there. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier New Digikam user here.....what I've been able to see is awesome....with that famous BUT: Scanning files crashes Digikam a LOT, often in as little as 30 seconds. Even with repeated starts I'm only to letter F in my image folder. Many more to go. Yes, thousands of images. Compared to Picasa, the scan is slow, too. Picasa's scan seems to work completely in the background except for that little activity card that shows up in the lower right when finding new photos. Digikam's scanner sucks up a lot of resources, slowing everything down to a less than a crawl. Oh, Windows XP, SP 3, KDE 4.4.0, Digikam 1.1.0 (or whatever is current.) Right now I feel like it's dating a beautiful women with mental problems. I want, I want, I want....but.... Please provide a backtrace of your crash. So Johannes promptly responds to my email and asks for a backtrace. I send the email as return - telling him I don't have a clue what a backtrace is - and this effin' moronic bugzilla doesn't like HTML mail! WTF????????????? HEY, IT'S 2010! It's no wonder people give up on linux and open source. It's like a Mensa only secret club with archaic (non-HTML) communications. I might be sub-Mensa, but I'm close. I'm well educated, I managed a computer lab, have had a computer repair side business, and am generally looked on by friends and family as someone who can help. But here it's like I'm an illiterate noob. I guess after spending almost two hours downloading Digikam - missing files, whatever - and the constant crashing, and spending all this time finding out if this is a bug and how to report it, I'll not be using Digikam. I have too many frustrations in my life w/o adding this to it. A pity. Thanks for the caring, Johannes. The original report there is about digiKam 1.0.0-beta5 ! It's pretty old. Also the crash appear in Exiv2 shared lib. Please update digiKam to last 1.4.0 and Exiv2 to 0.20, and try again. We waiting info... Gilles Caulier New digiKam 4.11.0 is available. https://www.digikam.org/node/740 Can you reproduce the problem with this release ? This problem is not reproducible using last digiKam 5.0.0 + Exiv2 0.25. I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary. Gilles Caulier |
