[KPhotoAlbum] KPA 5.2 crashes after reading new photos

[Andreas Schleth]

Hi Martin,

I just tried the most recent git master also with opensuse 42.2. I get 
the same warning, but - fortunately for me - no crash.  My current 
version (some months old) also works without crashing.
As it works on your other computers with the same OS, the problem might 
not lie with KPA.

Did you try to run it in gdb:

gdb ./kphotoalbum
 > run
do what you need to make it crash ...
 > bt full
(This output might help to find the cause for the crash, although I am 
no expert here)
 > q (to exit gdb)

Cheers, Andreas
