Sorry, I'm not experienced enough to switch a library. I installed 0.20 but
digikam still uses 0.19.3.
[by the way: in the main text of the bug I wrote "...but the crash happens with
0.20 too": I was *wrong*, I installed 0.20 but didn't know digikam was still
using 0.19.3]

I tried to remove 0.19.3 but the network of dependencies would uninstall almost
everything else, including digikam. Finally I tried to change the symbolic link
for libexiv2.so.6 pointing it to libexiv2.so.9.0.0 (the new one) but when I ran
digikam I got an "undefined symbol" error.

It seems I'll have to wait until the next ubuntu release in april.

That picture is not really a problem for me (I can simply re-save it with gimp
and after that digikam can read it); I opened the bug just to help improve the
software.

Anyway you can still check if the latest version crashes or works by saving the
attached image and trying yourself.

Thank you for your patience and great work.
