Description Simon 2013-11-15 13:21:52 UTC

As soon as I open the captions tab, digikam crashes either after assigning a caption or after selecting an image. Means CPU goes to 100 %, the UI is not updated anymore, and it just hangs like this forever.

I have re-built the database and the problem persisted. Happens at least since 3.4.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Assign a caption to an image.

We need a backtrace to hack a crash...

Cannot as it hangs (crash was the wrong expression). What can I do there?

Comment 3 caulier.gilles 2013-11-15 22:15:46 UTC

Run digiKam into GDB to get a backtrace :

It crash in Qt core, especially in QLineEdit widget. Sound like your system is corrupted as a binary compatibility issue with shared libs.

Of course, here in same condition, digiKam do not crash...

In other words, check your system... It's not a digiKam relevant problem...

I have current packages from debian sid, digikam, libqt4 and KDE. Re-installed them and nothing has changed. How can I find out more? What other shared libraries might be the cause?

Comment 7 caulier.gilles 2013-11-16 13:51:35 UTC

As i can see in backtrace, this come from an issue in Qt or KDE libs.

I recommend to report this problem to Debian packagers.
