           Summary: digikam image editor crashes when browsing too fast
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.10.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: resonantcore at gmail.com


Version:           0.10.0 (using KDE 4.3.2)
Compiler:          gcc version 4.3.2 20081105 (Red Hat 4.3.2-7) (GCC)  
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

I open an album, click on a photo, then press F4, which opens that photo in the
Image Editor. The keys PageUp and PageDown move to the prev/next photo in that
album. If I happen to press PgUp or PgDown BEFORE the Image Editor manages to
load the current photo, it simply crashes. This usually happens when I'm
quickly skipping images. 

Console output: 
digikam: Fatal IO error: client killed
KCrash: Application 'digikam' crashing...
sock_file=/home/MySelf/.kde/socket-MyHost/kdeinit4__0

Where MySelf is my user name and MyHost is my computer's hostname.
Also, the editor only crashes on larger images. I've noticed it loads fine
those images under 1024x768 (either original, from my low-res camcorder, or
resized from larger photos), but crashes on other larger photos - even just
1632x1232 (~2 MP), regardless of the camera brand (I've tried HP, Sony and
Samsung).

My exiv2 version is 0.17.1, and digiKam is 0.10.0.
It's not that bad, I can simply browse patiently, but this bug seems to be an
ugly one. That is, if it's a real bug.
