digikam constantly crashes on folders with certain svg files. Tells me something about unknown filetype in .xerrors.log This is very annoying, because those folders are not browsable. [34mDigikam::MetaEngine::Private::printExiv2ExceptionError[0m: Cannot load metadata from file with Exiv2 backend: /home/xxxxxxxx/loorberkranz-02-haelften-blau.svg (Error # 11 : "/home/xxxxxxxx/loorberkranz-02-haelften-blau.svg: Die Datei enthält Daten eines unbekannten Bildtyps." one of those files is here: https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZDYnpVZ1NLOKWcHvfumnJgj2F3smycVij97 It's just an ordinary Inkscape file digikam 7.5 Appimage /digikam 7.6 Appimage Linux (x86_64) release 5.4.0-109-generic Doesn#t make a difference if I use digikam 7.5 or dk 7.6 System Info: OS: Linux Mint 20.1 x86_64 Kernel: 5.4.0-109-generic Shell: bash 5.0.17 Resolution: 1920x1080 DE: MATE WM: Metacity (Marco) WM Theme: WinMe Terminal: mate-terminal CPU: Intel i5-4460 (4) @ 3.400GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 Memory: 32031MiB
Another entry where Exiv2 library crash again... Please report this UPSTREAM problem on Exiv2 project from github. Don't forget to share a sample for the team. https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/issues Note : Exiv2 used on AppImage come from the 0.27-maintenance branch, not main branch. Gilles Caulier
Exiv2 can't read the file, but it doesn't crash. But the problem is the ImageMagick backend for metadata. Problem is already fixed for digiKam-7.7.0. See bug 451943 Maik
