           Summary: rotate image does not work correctly
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: anthonyf chronica com


Version:           0.7.0-cvs (KDE 3.3.0) Kipi lib 0.1.0-cvs  Distro: SuSE 9.2 64-bit (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Rotation of thumbnail image in Digikam does not appear to work correctly.  Selection of 270 results in 180; selection of 180 results in 90.  Rotation appears to work correctly after the first attempt: ie, the first rotation of 180 is wrong, but continuing to rotate the same image appears to work.

This problem has only been observed in the 64-bit version (SuSE 9.2, KDE 3.3.0).  No problems observed on 32-bit versions (SuSE 9.1, KDE 3.2.1).

i don't this has anything to do with the 64 bit architecture. its most likely related to the fact that konqueror will save thumbnails in the ~/.thumbnails cache with exif rotated thumbnails (and its not supposed to do that). 

try this experiment:
empty out your ~/.thumbnails directory (rm -r -f ~/.thumbnail/*). Now open up digikam (without opening konqueror or any other app) and visit an album. now see if you can reproduce the problem
