Comment 1 caulier.gilles 2011-11-11 17:34:02 UTC
Crash is in KDELibs not digiKam.

As i can see, it sound like crash appears at loading icons. Do you have installed Oxygen package from KDE.

Comment 2 Mathieu Clabaut 2011-11-11 17:41:39 UTC
Yes. Package oxygen-icons is installed. 
I tried to reinstall them but there are no changes.
Comment 3 caulier.gilles 2011-11-11 17:56:15 UTC
install digikam debug package. Run it through GDB and report the crash trace in this file...

Comment 4 Mathieu Clabaut 2011-11-11 18:01:10 UTC
Same problem with digikam 2.3.0 compiled from sources
Comment 5 Marcel Wiesweg 2011-11-19 11:17:11 UTC
This is a kdelibs problem, in the KSharedDataCache which is based on inter-process shared memory. All other KDE apps run fine?
Comment 6 Mathieu Clabaut 2011-11-22 12:48:42 UTC
No you're right, it looks like lot of kde applications failed with a bus error… But digikam is the one I use on a regularly base…
I'm on arch linux, and didn't find an easy way to rebuild all kde with debug symbols. I will give a try with kdelibs.
Comment 7 Mathieu Clabaut 2011-11-22 12:56:24 UTC
doing "rm /var/tmp/kdecache-* -rf" does the trick.
Cf :  https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=284770

Thanks a lot Marcel !

Not reproducible with 6.0.0 since we don't depend anymore of this KDE component.
