Here is the story. Digikam first crashed while moving files inside digikam. Source and destination were on two different partitions. This ended up with a partially (i suppose) copied file on the destination partition. I have to mention that the file is canon crw raw file. Now each time digikam is restarted it seems to try to process the partially copied file and then crashes. Here is a link to the original file and the partially copied file that makes my digikam version crash : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jwx0lw6gtae5y2p/AACGPr-dddNdFisFMl-5WqEza?dl=0 While debug package of digikam and libkipi have been installed, I'm unable to retrieve debug information. Maybe this bug has already been corrected in a recent version. Other tools behaviour regarding this file: - aftershot 1 and 2 as well as rawtherapy don't recognize the partially copied file as a valid one and skip it - darktable crashes Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open the corrupted file from showphoto or digikam 2. 3. Actual Results: The software crashes Expected Results: file should be ignored and the application shall survive. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04. I use not to update every packages : - security update are done; - only applications that matters to me are updated. Displayed error: Application: digiKam (digikam), signal: Segmentation fault Please feel free to contact me if I can be of any help.

Exiv2 in case of corrupted file must take a care about this problematic case, and generate a C++ exception instead to crash.
