Description Diederik van der Boor 2004-10-21 16:06:07 UTC 
Version:           0.7-beta1 (using KDE 3.3.1, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-gentoo-r7

TIFF images are listed in the digikam album viewer, but their previews don't show up. They also fail to display in the digikam image editor.

Witch messages you have if you launch Digikam from a console.
Witch imlib2 release you have ? 
Imlib2 use modules for image files format support. Have you installed an 'imlib2-loader' package on your computer ?

a mini test tarball is provided here: 
http://pooh.tam.uiuc.edu/canvas-test.tar.gz

steps to compile:
1) tar zxvf canvas-test.tar.gz
2) cd canvas-test
you will need to make one adjustment, as its an installation specific thing:
in file canvas-test.pro, add the path to your kde include files in the line
which says:
INCLUDEPATH += . /usr/include /usr/include/kde

for eg, if your kde include files are in /usr/kde/3.3/include add that to the end of the above line

3)qmake
4)make


run it like this
./canvas-test /path/to/images/*

see if its able to load the tiff and other files

quick question. what version of imlib2 do you have? i recently installed imlib2 1.1.2 and find that the tiff loader is broken in there. i have a fix for the problem, but it has to go into imlib2. i'm trying to contact the imlib2 developers to fix the issue. note: 1.1.0 works fine. dunno about 1.1.1
Comment 4 Renchi Raju 2004-10-24 01:36:12 UTC 
i have reported the fix to the imlib2 developer and he's applied a fix in the cvs. the next release of imlib2 will work correctly in this regard.

Comment 6 Renchi Raju 2004-11-01 18:09:19 UTC 
lack of feedback from reporter. closing bug.
Comment 7 Brian Thomason 2005-04-07 04:24:27 UTC 
We saw this problem when compiling against imlib2 1.1.2 as well.  1.2.0 fixes the issue, just in case anyone is still curious. (This bug helped me trace the problem.  Thanks.)
