Description potter67 2010-07-01 18:48:28 UTC
Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.3.5) 
OS:                Linux

After doing an remote image operation (EXIF rotation and / or Tags setting), Digikam crashed. 

When restarted, Digikam showed me that the picture was now 90% grey like if it was really writing into the picture data instead of only writing metadata.

I used Digikam 0.10 for years and never had such a problem. I am now totally scared to used this 1.2 version.

Reproducible: Didn't try




I hope that Digikam while writing an image make a temp copy somewhere. Am i right ?

unfortunately I don't have a DigiKam + GDB version. Can you still give me the temp location ?

temp location ?

Comment 4 potter67 2010-10-06 16:52:20 UTC
by temp location, I mean the temp folder where Digikam stores a file before doing any modification on it (rating, exif modification, ...), just to be safe in case of power failure

This problem is not reproducible with last 5.0.0.
I close this file now. Don't hesitate to re-open if necessary.
