Description Claudius 2024-01-01 10:16:22 UTC

when adding a face tag, digikam reliably crashes on my machine. I have been tagging a lot of pictures with 8.1 in november successfully, I'm fairly certain that this is a regression.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open any image from your albums in the preview
2. Ctrl+Click/Drag a region (this step still works fine, and the region itself is preserved even after the crash!)
3. Type any single letter into the face tag input box that turns up. The first keystroke will reliably crash Digikam 8.2 for me.

OBSERVED RESULT
The whole application crashes on the first keystroke. Re-Opening DK8.2 takes a lot of time, but after the restart, the newly created region still exists (so it must have been saved before).

EXPECTED RESULT
The input box should bring up the usual search results and let me choose from existing options.
