Hi Styx,<br>
I have no idea if this will be of any help for you, but recently I
had a similar issue with Exiv2 in my OpenSuSE 13.2 with KDE.<br>
I do not know if with Kubuntu is the same but in my case there was a
packaging issue that made difficult to update to Exiv2 0.25.0.<br>
<br>
In fact there is a package Exiv2 but has nothing to deal with this
dance and makes no difference to install it or not.<br>
<br>
This is the issue in OpenSuSE: <br>
Digikam needs exiv2 v0.25 but the official repos have it packaged in
a way that it requests libkexiv2-11 in a version that in turns
requires the file libexiv2.so.13 provided by libexiv2-13 instead of
libexiv2-14 (with the correct Exiv2 v0.25.0).<br>
<br>
Therefore in my case the solution was to replace the packages of:<br>
<br>
digikam<font face="Arial, sans-serif"><font style="font-size: 9pt"
size="2"><br>
libkexiv2 (note the "k" on the name)<br>
libexiv2-14<br>
and all the kipi-plugins published on this repo: </font></font>
<ul>
<li><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><font style="font-size: 9pt"
size="2"><a class="western"
href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/NicoK:/branches:/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_13.2/">http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/NicoK:/branches:/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_13.2/</a></font></font>
</li>
</ul>
Libexiv and libkexiv were the key together with digikam packaged to
use the right versions of these libraries.<br>
<br>
Hope it guides you somehow to where to look for a solution to get
exiv2 0.25.0 that as Gilles stated, makes the entire difference when
you have video files mixed with photos among other issues.<br>
<br>
all best!<br>

Thanks for the fast and good answer, Gilles!<br>
<br>
It took me some time to get all the right versions. I added
the PPA mentioned in the first mail again and then installed
the package exiv2, which I hadn’t installed before – I
think. One hour ago, the package maintainer also updated the
version to 4.13.<br>
<br>
However, the problem somehow remains: I can rotate pictures,
that are located on my internal harddrive, but whenever I
try to rotate pictures on my external hard drive, Digikam
crashes again. Did I miss anything? Maybe it has something
to do with "libexiv2.so.14"?!?<br>
<br>
(I attached a new gdb-report again)<br>
<br>
Thank you so much!

This problem have been already reported in the past as

I recommend to update to last Exiv2 0.25.0.<br>

I installed all the needed dbg-packages and

right! Please find the dbg-output attached.<br>

Hello!<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0
0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc
solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
I’m new to the list, so forgive me, if this is
not the right place to ask<br>
the question. ;-)<br>
<br>
I’m on Kubuntu 14.04 (DigiKam 3.5) and I have a
strange behavior: I can’t<br>
do anything with the pictures, but watch them.
Every time I try to<br>
rotate a<br>
picture or assign a keyword or a flag, DigiKam
immediately crashes. I<br>
attached one of the KCrash reports, but KCrash
says, that the collected<br>
information is useless.<br>
<br>
I had this PPA (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://launchpad.net/%7Ephilip5/+archive/ubuntu/extra"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://launchpad.net/~philip5/+archive/ubuntu/extra</a>)<br>
added (DigiKam 4.12), but removed it again after
experiencing the problem<br>
with the crasing DigiKam. However, the crashes
also occur in the Ubuntu<br>
14.04 repository version (v 3.5). Has anybody
had or still have the same<br>
problem? Could it be related to some packages
that were installed due to<br>
the newer version of DigiKam in the PPA and
don’t behave well with other<br>
packages in Ubuntu 14.04?<br>
<br>
Some hint would be very appreciated. Thank you
very much!<br>
