Version: 1.8.0 (using KDE 4.6.0) OS: OS X I am just forwarding a bug reported to the MacPorts bug tracker: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28308 Because for me Digikam crashes on startup (bug 266733) I am not able to verify this, but there used to be similar problem with older versions. (However, I think KDE 4.5 and Digikam 1.8.0 worked fine.) Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: Start Digikam. Actual Results: No images are shwon. Expected Results: Images in an album are shown.
Please not that there were posted some logs in the original report in the MacPorts bug tracker.
I got Digikam to start on my computer again and can therefore also provide a log: GLaDOS:~> /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS/digikam KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a valid main component instead of a fake component, this usually means you tried to call i18n related functions before your main component was created.

Can yo start Kate editor, or Dolphin file manager whithout problem ? Gilles Caulier
Yes, Kate and Dolphin work - as far as I tested them - without any problems. At least they show folders and files.
With kdelibs 4.6.1 the images are shown again. :)
Thanks Jan, Do you have tried 2.0.0 source code from git repository ? Gilles Caulier
No, I just tried 1.9.0 until now.
Now I tried to compile the source code from the git repository, but that failed. I filed a new ticket: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268668
This problem is releavant of digiKam KIO Slaves and all of these have been dropped in favor of a multi-threaded interface to query the database.
