There is a problem in your computer about libkexiv2 from KDEGraphics component. digikam: symbol lookup error: digikam: undefined symbol: _ZN11KExiv2Iface14AltLangStrEdit15setLinesVisibleEj binary compatibility is broken between packages. digiKam have been recompiled with another libkexiv2. Do you have more than one libkexiv2 on your computer ? Gilles Caulier

Yes. I found two libkexiv2-installations. The first is "libkexiv2-10" (for KDE 4.7.1) and the other "libkexiv2-9" (for KDE 4.6.0). I deleted the last one, but nothing happened basicly. The newer one is necessary for KDE 4.7.1! Dirk
digiKam and co need to be recompiled to adjust linking properly... Gilles Caulier
Hi! I can confirm this issue (Kubuntu 11.04, KDE SC 4.7.1, digikam 2.2.0) There are two versions of libexiv in the ubuntu repositories: libexiv2-6 libexiv2-10 Both I have installed. Which version of libexiv2 do I need for digikam 2.2.0? Regards Oli
This depand of package used to compile digiKam. Both are certainly no binary compatible. At least, the last one is always better... Ask to your distro team for technical details. Gilles Caulier
For people having the crash on openSUSE using the _unsupported_ KDE:UpdatedApps repo. Updated packages are underway. Possibly already available as I write, depending on your architecture. Make sure you also update libexiv2-11, libkdcraw20 and libkipi8 to the versions provided by the KDE:UpdatedApps repo. To be sure you have the correct set of packages update using: 'zypper dup --from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/UpdatedApps/openSUSE_11.4/' These are the packages you should have installed: cb400f@worKstation:~> rpm -q digikam libexiv2-11 libkdcraw20 libkipi8 digikam-2.2.0-16.1.x86_64 libexiv2-11-0.22-3.1.x86_64 libkdcraw20-4.6.25-500.1.x86_64 libkipi8-4.6.25-500.1.x86_64 cb400f@worKstation:~> And please, if you have these types of installation problems with unsupported repositories, ask on the opensuse-kde mailinglist or irc-channel before filing bugreports upstream.
digiKam 2.2.0 is out since few weeks. Crash still valid with this version ? Gilles Caulier
Dirk, Martin, This entry still valid using 2.4 release ? Gilles Caulier
It's not valid with any version of digikam on openSUSE. It's people with inconsistent installations and often also mixing incompatible repositories.
