Description

According to the advice of the developer of digikam, I post my problem here again. It is NOT reproduceable under Linux.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326580

After the update to digikam 3.5 and a digikam maintainance rescan pictures->database (SQLite) 150 GB pictures are corrupted: Finder/quicklookd, Preview and Photoshop Elements 8 are crashing with error EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP), when I open any picture with Finder/Quicklook or via Open-dialog of PSE. Raw and PDF pictures are not affected.

Solution on jpeg pictures is to stripe exif data with a tool like http://imageoptim.com/
After that, I can open the pictures in Quicklook, PSE, Preview again - but all the exif data is gone.

One corrupted picture is attached.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce: better try not to reproduce the bug, unless you have a backup of your pictures

1. update macports digikam to version 3.5
2. run maintainance + sync pictures with database. In the digikam preferences / Metadata / Write this information to the metadata / every checkbox is checked. In Reading and writing metadata prefs nothing is checked. (see screenshot attached)

After the sync is done,
3. try to preview a picture in MacOS X Finder/Quicklook by pressing space bar or
4. go to Photoshop Elements / open / choose any image digikam can write corrupted metadata to: jpg, tiff, png. Sigma raw files (X3F) and PDF are not affected
5. go to Apple preview and try to open a jpg picture - it crashes
6. GIMP 2.8.6 Macports version crashes NOT

No crash on the trunk. I suspect a new version of DigiKam will resolve this.

Updated by Thomas Beutlich over 6 years ago

Robin, did you try to reproduce with Macports? Issue author already said that it is not reproducible on Linux.

#4

Updated by Robin Mills over 6 years ago

No Thomas, I did not. I only ran the image on exiv2 on MacOS-X on the trunk. And I'm not even sure that he's using Exiv2. The bug title and the report shows "libexif @0.6.21_0 (active)". There are two possibilities:

1) His version of DigiKam is using libexif and not libexiv2
2) He's using Exiv2 v0.21.0 which has been somehow labelled as "libexif @0.6.21_0"
v0.21 is a rather elderly version of exiv2 (about 6 years old).

So... my feeling is that he should update DigiKam. I'm running mac ports right now to install DigiKam and I'll look at this when the golf is finished.

#5

Updated by Robin Mills over 6 years ago

Well, MacPorts has build DigiKam in about 2 hours. Lots of dependencies (including exiv2 of course).

I got it to run. You have start bus:

620 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications $ launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
/opt/local/Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist: Operation already in progress
621 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications $ ps ax | grep dbus
94908   ??  S      0:00.01 /opt/local/bin/dbus-daemon --nofork --session
95128 s000  R+     0:00.00 grep dbus
622 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications $ 
I think it's running. Then chown the preferences:
625 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications $ sudo chown -R rmills ~/Library/Preferences/KDE
626 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications $ 
And then the application magically appears in /Applications/Macports/KDE/digikam. And here's Martin's image and metadata beautifully displayed:

For sure it's running libexiv2 v0.24

517 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS $ otool -L digikam | grep exiv2
    /opt/local/lib/libkexiv2.11.dylib (compatibility version 11.0.0, current version 11.2.0)
518 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS $ depends digikam | grep exiv2
/opt/local/lib/libexiv2.13.dylib
/opt/local/lib/libkexiv2.11.dylib
519 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS $ exiv2 -vV | grep libexiv2
library=/usr/local/lib/libexiv2.13.dylib
520 rmills@rmillsmbp:/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/digikam.app/Contents/MacOS $ 
I think this is a wild goose chase. The user is talking about DigiKam v3.5 and the current release is v4.8. For sure, it's time for an upgrade.
