Description Axel Krebs 2010-10-17 19:08:12 UTC

Version:           1.4.0 (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

when building _al_ new fingerprints, DK crashed at some pomt - at avout 18% of 79246 pics.

starting "suchen" at "build fingerprint", it just treats some dozens pics and crashes at one specific NIKON rws-pic .

in both cases, bug-report assistence starts up, requires debug-data to be installed and assumes "useless bug report". the debug files _were_ installed before. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
just do it ;-) !

Actual Results:  
see above

Expected Results:  
at least "debugging" should work without any problems.

Try digiKam 1.5.0. I fixed a crash in the same condition...

Anyway, please post here a GDB backtrace of crash

Comment 2 Axel Krebs 2010-10-17 20:40:38 UTC

? what is a "GDB" backtrace?

! as I wrote, I end up in an endless sequence of
1. crash
2. attempt to place a bugreport
3. get a statement, bug report was useless
4. get a statement, please install debug files
5. install again the debug-files (which were installed before!!)
6. without changes.
7. after re-starting DK exactly the same situation.

--> "1."!

I do not see DK 1.5 in my repositories, so I can`t install it. Right?!

! I have the mentioned file but the bug-reporting system doesn't allow
for size.
Rem.: As much as I know, pic sizes become larger and larger from the
very beginning of digicams til today. So I suggest to support large
files up to 20 .. 30 MB (standard pic sizes nowadays!!)

New digiKam 4.11.0 is available.

https://www.digikam.org/node/740

Can you reproduce the problem with this release ?

Comment 5 caulier.gilles 2016-07-15 18:52:30 UTC

With digiKam 5.0.0, this problem is not reproducible.
I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary.
