Gilles, thank you very much for your input and advice.<br><br>I have (more or less) read the whole bug report and I understand the problem is VERY complicate and that it might not be entirely a matter of packaging.<br><br>
Anyway, as I saw there was a new package in the Fedora repository, I tried to reinstall Digikam 2.0 from scratch (I had removed the 1.9 version beforehand). This time I run Digikam from the console from the very first launch, and understood 2 things:<br>
- "thlibdc1394 error: Failed to initialize libdc1394" message is the first one that appears at the first launch<br> - when I closed the Digikam window, I got this message in the console : "QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'digikamDatabase-30048960' is still in use, all queries will cease to work." and I had to do a Ctrl-C after to get the control back (and that might be the incident that corrupts my DB at every first launch)<br>
I'm not sure the whole trace will be useful for you as you seem to have plenty on this subject, but I keep it in case you want it.<br><br>As for now, I will 'try' to follow your advice and compile by myself; but:<br>
1) I'm not even sure I'll reach the end of this procedure; if there is somewhere some documentation understable by a newbie, I would very much like to be pointed at it<br>2) I understand that even that could not solve the problem, as others - much more experimented than I am - have already reported in the bug report.<br>
<br>If that fails, I'll have to go back to 1.9 and await for good news about this problem.<br><br>Thanks for helping,<br>Marie-Noëlle<br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/8/21 Gilles Caulier <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:caulier.gilles@gmail.com">caulier.gilles@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

<div><br></div><div>I recommend to Marie :</div><div>
<br></div><div>1/ Checkout current code from git master (2.1.0).</div><div>2/ Compile and install it instead to use a precompiled package.</div><div><br></div><div>The advantage to use currrent implementation is to have of course bug fixes and to be able to see debug statements that developpers can add in life.</div>
