SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. start digikam (in my case with 38.000 pictures, no video) 2. use it a while after it has settled down looking for new pictures 3. go from one album to another OBSERVED RESULT DK crashes, no indication of error, not a problem to restart it later EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Run digiKam from a console into GDB as explained here : https://www.digikam.org/contribute/ ... and report back-trace here. Gilles Caulier
Ubuntu Packages mean Snap Package? Snap packages use a sandbox and are unusable for using digiKam. Use our AppImage on Ubuntu. Maik
My Digikam (7.6.0) is ran from flatpak (in Kubuntu 21.10). When I follow the advice, i.e. in terminal, run the following: 1 export QT_LOGGING_RULES="digikam*=true" 2 digikam (see https://www.digikam.org/contribute/) ... I get, after having entered line 1, and typed "digikam", the message that there is no digikam and that I should or could install Digikam using snap or whatever. But it is not possible to start digikam from the terminal. Even when I start digikam in terminal as "flatpak run digikam", I get an error. I do not know how to run Flatpak digikam in terminal, as I find no information on the sentence to use.
Flatpak are also useless and use a sandbox. Other projects (Kate) have already canceled Flatpak. We also do not provide the flatpaks. Please test it with our AppImage. Maik
