Sentry Crash Report:

Description MailManM 2021-12-09 13:14:06 UTC

SUMMARY
The application crashes usually when moving files.
Sorry I hope issue can be addressed even without me recompiling the application for backtrace.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Import album from USB onto hard disk.

OR

1. Move several images to Trash.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Qt 5.15.2 (x86_64-little_endian-lp64 shared (dynamic) release build; by GCC 11.1.0) on "wayland"
OS: Arch Linux [linux version 5.15.6-arch2-1]
Architecture: x86_64; features: SSE2 SSE3 SSSE3 SSE4.1 SSE4.2 AVX

Im using SWAY, which means wayland compositor wlroots.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Probably related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392376 and https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-66997
That would suggest the fix could be as easy as doing file manipulation in nonGUI thread, but I didn't look at the code, so take it with huge grain of salt. I don't want to send you looking at the wrong place.

Can you try with the last 7.4.0 pre-release AppImage bundle to see if problem still reproducible ?

What type of database are you using (SQLite or MySQL)?

Comment 3 Nicholas Eckardt 2022-02-18 02:31:13 UTC

I'm also experiencing this bug. I initially used digikam 7.1.0 using SQLite. 

I attempted to run digiKam-7.5.0-x86-64.appimage, however I encountered https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427906

My OS is Debian 11, I'm also using sway.

@MailManM@email.cz,

What's about this file using current 8.2.0 AppImage Linux bundle ? It's
reproducible ?

Thanks in advance
