When editing CR2 files, the Save As button works ok on the first image that I edit after opening digikam. When I go to edit the second CR2 file, when clicking Save As, the button stays pressed and digikam stops responding, requiring a force close. The following is displayed in the console when saving the first image: --- digikam.general: startSavingAs called (digikam:18368): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_default_set_current_name: assertion 'impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE || impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER' failed (digikam:18368): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 'GdkWindow' (digikam:18368): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'result != 0' failed (digikam:18368): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_type_register_static: assertion 'parent_type > 0' failed (digikam:18368): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'result != 0' failed --- After this, the Save As dialog appears and the file can be saved. On the second call, only this is displayed in the console and digikam stops responding: --- digikam.general: startSavingAs called (digikam:18368): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_default_set_current_name: assertion 'impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE || impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER' failed --- This is pretty anoying, as it forces to close and re-open digikam after each file, not the ideal thing to do when you have 200 photos to process.
In any case it would be helpful if you could run digiKam in gdb to produce a backtrace (https://www.digikam.org/contribute/). This may still be related to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=846630 Try running digiKam from command line with the following additional environment variable set: QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2 digikam
I'm on Xubuntu 17.04. The last comment from bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=846630 solved the problem. After installing package qt5-style-plugins there were no more problems with the Save As button, it displayed the save dialog every time, even without the aditional environment variable. FYI, here follows a stack trace after I was forced to ctrl-c into gdb when testing before installing the above package: --- (digikam:23187): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_default_set_current_name: assertion 'impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE || impl->action == GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER' failed [Thread 0x7ffec8bd0700 (LWP 23361) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed1290700 (LWP 23276) exited] [Thread 0x7ffeda3d9700 (LWP 23337) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed2292700 (LWP 23274) exited] [Thread 0x7ffec93d1700 (LWP 23360) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed6b5d700 (LWP 23340) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed735e700 (LWP 23339) exited] [Thread 0x7ffebb8d7700 (LWP 23342) exited] [Thread 0x7ffeeffff700 (LWP 23333) exited] [Thread 0x7ffec2654700 (LWP 23287) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed2a93700 (LWP 23270) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed3294700 (LWP 23263) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed3a95700 (LWP 23262) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed4296700 (LWP 23261) exited] [Thread 0x7fff0599f700 (LWP 23227) exited] [Thread 0x7ffeba8d5700 (LWP 23346) exited] [Thread 0x7ffec3656700 (LWP 23283) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed8b61700 (LWP 23327) exited] [Thread 0x7fff04a65700 (LWP 23231) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed7b5f700 (LWP 23334) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed8360700 (LWP 23329) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed9bd8700 (LWP 23328) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed0a8f700 (LWP 23281) exited] [Thread 0x7ffec2e55700 (LWP 23286) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed5282700 (LWP 23269) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed028e700 (LWP 23282) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed5a83700 (LWP 23268) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed635c700 (LWP 23341) exited] [Thread 0x7ffebb0d6700 (LWP 23345) exited] [Thread 0x7ffeba0d4700 (LWP 23353) exited] [Thread 0x7ffec1e53700 (LWP 23288) exited] [Thread 0x7ffed1a91700 (LWP 23275) exited] ^C Thread 1 "digikam" received signal SIGINT, Interrupt. syscall () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/syscall.S:38 38 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/syscall.S: No such file or directory.

@Mário Pereira Did you only install qt5-style-plugins or also set QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2? @Maik and Gilles: While the problem itself could probably be solved in packaging I am still wondering why native (i.e. GTK) dialogs/styles come into play. The relevant dialog is imageFileSaveDialog in editorwindow.cpp which is a DFileDialog. In its initialization setOption(QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog); is run. So as far as I understand the dialog should be QT and nothing native, however this report shows that this is not the case.
@Simon, just installing qt5-style-plugins solved the problem. I'm using the launcher that I had before upgrading digikam and it works nicely again after installing the package. FYI, I was using digikam 5.4 on Xubuntu 16.10, then upgraded to Xubuntu 17.04 and digikam 5.5, noticed the problem and upgraded to digikam 5.6 to see if it solved it. That was when I reported the bug. Now I have 5.6 working nicely in 17.04. Thanks for the support
Where do you install digiKam from? You should file a bug request with your packager asking to depend on this package.
5.5 was installed from the Ubuntu repositories, upgraded when I upgraded to 17.04. 5.6 was installed from https://launchpad.net/~philip5/+archive/ubuntu/extra I'll file a bug with both, thanks
