Definitively, forget the Snap 8.2.0 version which is outdated and use the Linux AppImage bundle instead that we provide. I recommend the 9.1.0 pre-release which include bug-fix only compared to the last 9.0.0 just released few weeks ago. https://files.kde.org/digikam/
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 517733 ***
Switching to AppImage worked. May try EXIF lib downgrade listed in 517733 to fix other issues until that lib updated.
(In reply to dev.schroeder.soft from comment #3) > Switching to AppImage worked. > > May try EXIF lib downgrade listed in 517733 to fix other issues until that > lib updated. I do it! Downgrade the libexiv2 and Showfoto/Digicam and Gwenview work again! I will Hold in Synaptic the pack libexiv2 to the build version Until the New version with Fix comming out! Using Appimage is a alternative soluttion But with this Bug I have many problems in Dolphin and other programs, i will not Keep using the Bug Version of libexiv2 0.27.6-1ubuntu0.1 but the build version that works fine until new updates! Thanks for all!
