Description Axel Krebs 2011-12-27 06:50:31 UTC

Version:           2.4.1 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

After updating digikam from 2.1 to 2.4.1, Hugin forces system to freeze. Only reboot can interrupt the crash.

Sorry, don´t know, if this is a Hugin topic (coming from sourcforge.net)

OBSERVATIONS: 
1.) Hugin, Hugin_data and Hugin_tools come from repository "extra" <http://ppa.launchpad.net/philip5/extra/ubuntu> or <http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu>

2.) When entering this bug in KDE bug tracking system, there is only KDE Version 4.7.3 wheras new installed Version is KDE 4.7.4!!

3.) Starting up digikam takes about 3 min: is KDE 4.47.4 stable, is it fine tuned already?
DATA:
HUGIN 
2011.4.0.cf9be9344356

SYSTEM
Betriebssystem: Linux 3.0.0-14-generic-pae i686
Architektur: 32 bit
Freier Speicher:  1445268 kiB

Hugin
Version: 2011.4.0.cf9be9344356
Ressourcen-Pfad: /usr/share/hugin/xrc/
Datenpfad: /usr/share/hugin/data/

Bibliotheken
wxWidgets: 2.8.11.0
libpano13: 2.9.18 
Boost: 1.46.1
Exiv2: 0.22.0

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Starting HUGIN, loading pics, at the moment I change to fast preview-window, the screen freezes, window borders disappear, sensitive areas (buttons, e.g.) are paralyzed and o nort react any more. 

(digikam runs in backround)

Actual Results:  
Unfortunately, it happens every time

Expected Results:  
system should just run- no matter which program(s).

!! Stability first, please!!!

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.0.0-14-generic-pae
Compiler: gcc

If the system freeze, it's not a digiKam... Something in your system is unstable, perhaps hardware, or a shared lib which break your system. Hugin is not used by digiKam.

Hugin, is only used in 2 plugins : Expoblending and Panorama.

I recommend to report this problem to hugin team...

Comment 2 Axel Krebs 2011-12-27 13:37:55 UTC

I tend to agree, as I do not program as yourself. I could use HUGIN and
digiKam 2.1 until yesterday without any problems, however.

At the moment, I install using the mentioned repositories to get new
digiKam 2.4.1, KDE and HUGIN are updated without selecting these!!!

Is there a way, to update _only_ digiKam?
